Balletcore, the fashion trend inspired by the costumes of traditional ballet performers, is going strong through fall. The trend is inspired by the practical, functional clothing worn in a ballerina’s daily practice – part of the disciplined training and ritual of the art form. Think bodysuits, wrap cardigans, tulle skirts, leggings and ballet flats.

-

Bodysuits, wrap cardigans, tulle skirts, leggings, and ballet flats are they key pieces that define the trend.

One of our dads at our studio has been recently diagnosed with thymus cancer. Never the news you want to get!

The Wilderman family has been a mainstay at our studio for over 6 years. Their daughter Ruby is in the Pre-Professional Division and their older daughter Norah also danced for a couple of years. Craig's wife Heidi is a frequent volunteer and she and Craig are always pitching in on the volunteer duties that no one else wants to do. They are an AMAZING family and loved by all!!

Craig and Heidi are currently in Houston at MD Anderson Cancer Center to seek out additional help for his rare cancer. They are trying to retain a sense of normalcy for their kids so other than checking in with Ruby as we normally would with any kid, we are asking that people don’t bring up her dad’s illness unless she wants to talk about it. The ballet is her safe space.

In Craig’s words:

“I was recently diagnosed with thymic carcinoma, a rare form of cancer in the upper chest. How rare? Well, approximately 1.3 cases per 1 million cancer diagnoses per year, or roughly 3-400 cases per year in the US. The odds are almost as slim as winning the Powerball - you can probably guess which one I would prefer between cancer and the lottery. Time to buy Power Ball tickets for Christmas!!”

As this journey unfolds, there will be many ways folks can support. We are good for now with meals and local transport - and those who have offered are being added to those lists. The biggest help that people can provide at the moment, if you are able, is to contribute to the DAWG Nation fundraiser to help with costs for travel to and from Houston. Please consider making a donation, which will be matched by the foundation, and help enable access to specialty care.”

The DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting local, national, and international amateur ice hockey players and their families during times of crisis. Since its inception DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation has been able to give out millions of dollars to positively impact the lives of many families in need.

If you can donate, please do! Thanks!!!

Craig is a long-time hockey player with two daughters and a wonderful wife, Heidi. Craig took a hit in a hockey game in early September, and thought he’d bruised his upper chest. The pain persisted, and a trip to the ER resulted in bad news. Rather than a bruise, Craig was diagnosed with Stage 4 [...

"To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful." - Agnes de Mille.

This quote inspires us to view dance as a transformative experience that allows us to transcend our everyday selves. Through dance, we can tap into a greater sense of beauty and strength, expressing our innermost emotions and aspirations. It encourages us to embrace the power of movement to elevate our spirits, challenge our limits, and connect with a deeper, more profound part of who we are.
