“We live in a crazy world, caught up in a rat race. Concrete jungle life is sometimes a mad place...”

Living in heated times, we have few chances to cool down, and these opportunities to get together and celebrate are precious and essential.

Many thanks to the fabulous teams at FDC, Cortelyou Radio, and all their collaborators who make the Flatbush Frolic and Main Stage performances possible each year. We were so happy to celebrate the energy, accomplishments, and possibilities that make up the fabric of the greater Flatbush community. Thank you for inviting us to be part of the festivities once again. Bravo to all the performers, and many, many thanks to all of you who came out to Frolic with us!

We still have space available in fall Ballet, Tap, Pointe, Creative Dance, Jazz, Modern, Toddler Tuesdays, and our Dance Explorers After-School Program for anyone feeling continuously confined and looking for a place where anyone can be anything. Join us!

This Sunday, October 18th, Saunderskill Farm , you can score a hayride, pluck a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch, lose yourself in the corn maze, and get into the Addams Family groove with a 3 PM Monster Mash!

The Monster Mash, a complimentary, 45-minute graveyard smash, promises to be a real scream, beginning with a creative, Halloween-inspired warm-up and culminating in a mini performance full of party tricks for Halloween treating.

Designed with ages 5–8 in mind, it's open to kids and parents of all ages looking for a little Halloween adventure. Comfortable costumes are welcome and encouraged!

Remember to come early, though—Saunderskill's fall activities wrap up at 4 PM, just as our dance program does. You'll find us by the mums/fence line. Register now for more details on the class location and parking--the first 15 who do will receive a free gift!

Dressed for class! If you haven’t met our newest dancer, you are in for a treat. Analise “Estelle” has big shoes to fill, but she’s leaping ahead, one step at a time. She’s already twirling, standing on her toes, and charming her way into everyone’s hearts. Now she just has to learn to stay quiet during class(!).

Daisy was irreplaceable, but there are so many sweet, deserving dogs out there who just want to be loved. Special shout-out to Bobbi And The Strays for all the work they’re doing to find every dog and cat a home. We were so impressed with how well cared for, well behaved, and loved every dog and cat who walks through their doors is. Their Queens location is small, but their crates are always full, and most dogs are only there a couple of weeks before they’re scooped up by someone delighted to love them.

Who was it that said, "You may be one person to the world, but you're the world to one person"--?? Check out their Queens location for small dogs and cats and their Long Island location for larger dogs, and give one a home ❤️🏠🐾

Thrilled to welcome Mika Foguel to our Dance Explorers Team!

Mika is an emerging dance administrator currently pursuing her master’s in Performing Arts Administration at NYU. She discovered her love of dance at age 13, taking hip-hop classes at Broadway Dance Center and Peridance. She went on to earn her bachelor’s degree at Wesleyan University, where she studied dance, film, and education. While there, she co-directed a three-day Variety Dance Show that drew an audience of 800 attendees, an experience that helped her discover her calling in dance administration. Mika also brings a wealth of experience working with children, having worked in both afterschool programs and summer camps as a dance specialist.

Welcome Lexi Vesselinov! Lexi grew up in Port Washington, NY, where she trained in ballet, modern, and contemporary dance. At the University of Virginia, earning a B.S. in Chemistry with a specialization in biochemistry, along with minors in dance and data science. While at UVA, she was a member of the Dance Program and directed and choreographed her own full-length spring concert. She went on to spend summers working with the Bates Dance Festival Professional Training Program.

Lexi is currently pursuing an M.A. in Individualized Study at New York University, where her focus is dance and physics—how bodies move and why they move the way they do. Now based in NYC, she continues her dance training through studio classes at NYU Tisch, Gibney, Peridance, and Alvin Ailey. In addition to choreographing contemporary and modern dance, Lexi enjoys teaching young students.

In class, Lexi works to help students understand technique through imagery and sensation, while leaving room for them to experiment and make choices of their own. So happy to have her on our Dance Explorers team this year!

Adventure into holiday magic!

Auditions for our 13th Annual Nutcracker are Friday and Saturday, Oct 2 & 3. This is where the team aspect of a young dancer’s training takes center stage, and its afterglow will carry them through the year.

Participation is open to current students only, and placement auditions and the parent meeting are both mandatory.

Trial a class today! There are still fall spots open in Ballet, Tap, Creative Dance, Modern, Jazz, Rhythm & Moves and our Dance Explorers After-School program for dancers who would like to be involved.

Meet Sydney! Sydney Sullivan (she/her) is a lifelong dancer and educator whose training began at age two and grew into extensive pre-professional study in both the Vaganova and Balanchine traditions. She trained in ballet, pointe, contemporary, jazz, lyrical, musical theatre, and character, attending summer intensives with American Ballet Theatre and Joffrey Ballet. She performed throughout her teenage years and has taught dancers of all ages and levels since.

As an educator, Sydney strives to create a classroom that is warm, encouraging, and grounded in strong technique. She believes that thoughtful training can help dancers build confidence, musicality, and a deeper sense of creative and emotional expression. Outside the studio, Sydney holds an MS degree in Strategic Communication and has extensive professional experience working with youth through arts and nonprofit education. Thrilled to welcome her to our Ballet Faculty this year!
