What an incredible month it has been. Thank you to Positioning Ballet for facilitating my mentorship and shadowing experience with @josecmartinezofficial whose guidance I will treasure as I move on to my next challenges. I could not be more grateful to the entire team @balletoperadeparis for welcoming me so warmly and sharing their valuable knowledge and insights. #positioningballet #mentorship #parisoperaballet #ballet
What an incredible few days of connection, reflection, and inspiration.
Grateful to be part of this journey — exploring what leadership in ballet can look like today and how we can shape its future together.
Huge thanks to @tedbrandsen , @assiscarreiro_ , and @susannahburke1 for guiding us.
So many insights to carry forward — about courage, collaboration, and creating spaces where art and people can truly thrive.
Feeling inspired, grounded, and ready for what’s next. Photo by @altin.kaftira #positioningballet #positioningballetforum #positioningballet2025
