Hi Lynne Marie,
I don’t know if you remember us. Letira was only six years old when we participated in the DTW and World Center Piece. It was so difficult for me, my Dad had recently passed away, it turned oiut to be a vary emotional piece that I will never forget. Letira was with Saltare Foundation for the Arts at the time. She has never forgotten the experience either.
Letira still has a passion for dance. She compromised somewhat to get great academics, (she left training with Valentina Kozlova), to attend St. Paul’s School in NH. She loves the school but she is a sometimes bored member of the classical ballet company. The dance highlight of her year is when the guest coreographers in contemporary and lyrical jazz arrive in the Spring. So, when Letira is at home on breaks she is always looking for opportunities to dance in a freer style. We still live on LI and Letira is sixteen now so if any thing comes up that she could participate in, say over the summer etc. please think of her. Congratulations on your work, I was thrilled to get the chance to watch it on-line.
Sincerely,
Helena Smith
