✨ A massive Congratulations to ARB Alum .heisel on her promotion to Principal at !✨

Only in her third season with the company, she has skyrocketed through the ranks and we couldn’t be any happier or pleased. Renowned for her focused work ethic, kindness to her fellow dancers, humbleness, gratitude, and unique humor, this is only the beginning and we can’t wait to follow along.

Abigail was a student at ARB from the young age of 3 years old until 16 when she began her finishing studies at John Cranko Schule. (She only attended one outside Summer Program at Harid). While we noticed her talent and special sparkle early in her training, she wasn’t a baby ballerina social media phenom and worked, focused, and trusted the process. It wasn’t always a smooth road and there were ups and downs as with anything in life.

Her parents kept open communication with us and knew we were putting her on the best path for her individual success.
We will always be grateful for the faith and trust from them and Abby.

Join us in Congratulating Abby! She continues to be a constant in our lives and is inspiring the next generation of ARB dancers!
