PERSONAL NARRATIVES, MOMMY TIPS, AND THRILLING DISCOVERIES TO MAKE DAILY LIFE THE HAPPIEST

MOMI DANCES/ want to learn ballet?

July 14, 2016 · 18 Comments

My mother told me once she wanted her only daughter to take up ballet lessons.  We cannot afford the tuition fee, though, thus that plan was put on hold until totally scrapped.

Now that I have kids of my own, my mom would want them to attend ballet lessons.  Only that they aren’t interested.  They prefer basketball or soccer.  Perhaps because they are all boys.

In the Philippines, one of the most well-known ballet schools is  The Halili-Cruz School of Ballet.  The school has successfully represented the Philippines in different international festivals and competitions such as in Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, China, Brunei, South Korea, Russia, England and the USA.  Also, it holds the title  “Most Outstanding Ballet School in Asia” from 2000 to the present.

Founded by multi-awarded Artistic Director Shirly Halili-Cruz, The Halili-Cruz School of Ballet has garnered more than 300 national and international awards and prizes, among them, are:

  • Hall of Fame, Aliw Award as Best Classical Dance Company in the Philippines
  • 8- time Ani ng Dangal Awardee for its international achievements
  • People’s Choice as the Most Outstanding Performing Group
  • Grand Prize Winner in the Asia Pacific Dance Competition in Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong and the Philippines
  • Grand Prize Winner in the 21st Century International Dance and Arts Festival and Competition in Genting Highlands, Malaysia
  • First Prize in the Dance Excellence in Los Angeles, California, USA
  • Global Excellence Award in Bangkok, Thailand
  • Best Performance in classical and contemporary dance in the Bauhinia Cup International Dance Competition in Hongkong
  • Global Pinoy Award

Becoming a ballet dancer requires years of training. Ballet has been taught in various schools around the world, which have historically incorporated their own cultures to evolve the art.  It originated in the  Italian Renaissance courts of the 15th century and later developed into a concert dance form in France and Russia. It has been globally influential and has defined the foundational strategies used in many other dance genres.

So for parents wanting their kids to learn ballet, you may check The Halili-Cruz School of Ballet.  For more than 30 years and with the many recognitions under its name, surely The Halili-Cruz School of Ballet  speaks and moves only of excellence and passion.  Contact TAG Media and Public Relations at 09166299381 or grace@tagmedia.asia for more details.

    Ballet will always be close to my heart. It would be nice to be able to pass this love over to my kids. I think it’s great that they are opening a ballet school, the perfect opportunity for aspiring dancers to follow their dreams!

    I must admit I don’t know much about ballet. I didn’t have the option to take classes when I was a kid. But the amount of strength and skill ballet dancers have is amazing!

      Believe me, we admire “non-dancers” for so many things other than just dancing 🙂

    I know that certain activities can be much more expensive than others. I also know it can be hard to afford the ones that you want.

    True Ballet requires a ridiculous amount of hard work, discipline and conditioning your body. It’s one of the most beautiful artforms of dance I have ever seen. So glad your post was rich in the history of this school and how amazing it is.

    My sister use to be in ballet. She loved it too. I think it does take a lot of strength too. I think it would be great if either of my girls were in ballet.

    I wanted to be a ballerina when I was younger, but the thought never crossed my mind to ask for lessons. It takes such discipline to do ballet, I admire those dancers.
