 What People are Saying

It was an inspiring experience to see the “behind the scenes” of a professional show, and taking part of it was even more amazing! Ms. Melissa and all the student teachers were so helpful and encouraging! - Kerstin L

I think the Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker is such a great experience that requires a short time commitment. My girls are still talking about how amazing it is to dance with professionals and be on the BIG stage. And I would like to express thanks for inviting my four year old to ride as a sleigh girl in the show. It was a scary endeavor for her but once she did it she had the time of her life, it really meant so much to her to be included. I also wanted to note that the new Costume Mistress with the company told me that all the cast and crew had been excited to spend two nights in Colorado Springs because we were "the best" studio and they had such an amazing experience last year. She then went on to tell me that she definitely could see why they would say that and how great Turning Pointe was to work with. - Jessie K.

My daughter loved the experience and I thought it was great. We had great communication and expectations and enjoyed it all! - Kristina W.

What an amazing experience Caitlyn had in the Nutcracker cast this year! The rehearsals and performances were very professional and she learned so much in a very short time . She was very confident on stage because of all of the wonderful teachers and gorgeous costumes. Thanks for a wonderful experience for her! - Christy C.

A stunning performance and beautifully designed for the younger dancers. The Great Russian Nutcracker should be experienced by all! Jamie B.
