Artistic

director Magdalena Maury will travel to Vermont this

summer to set her ballet "Snow White" on the

Burklyn Ballet Theatre. The ballet will then be taken to

Scotland to be premiered there. "It is an honor to

have your work recognized by others in the field,"

said Maury. "I only wish our own community would

recognize this fine, young dance company."

Maury also

was interviewed by Dance Teacher Now, a national

magazine, and will be featured in an article about mother

and daughter teachers in an upcoming issue. Maury's

mother Magda Aunon also is a ballet teacher and artistic

director in Florida.

Maury

continues to provide opportunities to the local dance

talent. In past years she has brought in guest teachers

and choreographers from Russia, Cuba, Israel, Hawaii and

New York. She is continuing a tradition that her mother

brought with her from Cuba from one of the finest ballet

companies in the world.

This summer

at the GYB's summer camp, the tradition continues.

Joffrey Ballet's Elie Lazar, Cincinati ballet's Jessica

Mylene, Yuma Ballet's Thom Clower and of course Magda

Aunon will be on hand to teach a four-week intensive

workshop. They will present a free performance at Sam's

Auditorium June 30. Dancers from Florida, Alabama, North

and South Carolina and Mississippi come and take the

workshop.
