With their performance just a day away, our Ballet Trainees came together for their final in studio run through of The Nutcracker last weekend. This last rehearsal is where everything begins to settle, where the pacing refines, and where the dancers step into the artistry they will bring to the stage. Since then, we have moved into the theater for tech rehearsal, shaping each moment under the lights and preparing for tomorrow’s first performance. The dancers are grounded, focused, and ready to share the magic with our community. Stay tuned for more behind the scenes moments as we count down to opening night. 🎟️ Click “The Nutcracker” link in bio to get your tickets today. 📅 December 12–14, 2025 | LaGuardia Performing Arts Center. 📸 laylamshoo #joffreyballetschool #ballettrainees #thenutcracker #nycdance #danceperformance
