Out and About 

Students from Colorado Ballet Academy were honored to be able to perform the Garland Waltz from Sleeping Beauty during the Dancers for a Cure benefit on September 6 and 7. This event was organized to benefit Francisco Estevez and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Francisco, a Colorado Ballet company member and teacher at Colorado Ballet Academy, was recently diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia and our dancers were grateful for the opportunity to perform the Garland Waltz to support finding a cure!
