    Last month I took my family to see the Nutcracker Ballet by the Fort Wayne Ballet in the Arts…read moreUnited Center. My family have seen that ballet done before in Miami, Florida by the Miami City Ballet. We moved nearby to Van Wert, back in 2020, and were excited to finally see ballet again. My family and I also love in particular the Nutcracker ballet so we were especially excited. Moreover, my mother's breast cancer surgery was schedule a few weeks after this and I was hoping this would cheer her up. First thing i will say, is I love how the ballet company was selling nutcracker Christmas ornaments. One of my two Christmas trees in my house is one decorated in that theme, so I took advantage and bought several ornaments I did not have to add to my tree. The ornaments are made by Kurt Adler, which are great quality... well worth the price. They also sold nutcrackers (of course), and they were selling nutcracker themed chocolate from local chocolatier DeBrand Chocolates. Since I am chocolate obsessed, I also bought some. Already just a few steps in, I was happy due to the goodies I was taking home. Before I entered the area in the Arts United Center where the ballet was taking place, there was a booth for the Fort Wayne Humane Society. They were there to get support from the public and also go showcase a few of the animals they have up for adoption. Two small little black kittens, who were a few months old and two cute dogs. I thought it was very nice of the ballet company to have this booth there, i love animals. What was really cool, is those two dogs up for adoption actually were part of the ballet. They showed up as the dogs of several of the adults who brought their children to the Christmas celebration that forms the beginning of the ballet. What a clever idea! The scenery of the ballet was incredibly well done. The Arts United Center is a bit spartan, less beautiful and decorated than other theaters I have gone to. To make it beautiful, and make you believe you are in a literal winter wonderland, you have to have incredible set design... which they did. I loved how before intermission, right as the curtains were dropping... artificial show came down from the ceiling onto everyone watching the ballet. Wow! Magical! Were the dancers as polished as those in Miami? No. But wow, I enjoyed the ballet more in Fort Wayne due to all the things I described above. It was just a better overall experience. When my family got home, I got onto their website and got tickets for future productions. My family had a wonderful time! My mom left with a smile on her face! I added some beautiful ornaments to my tree! I love Fort Wayne Ballet!

    I am both a grandmother to dancers at Sparkle and Shine Dance and the proud mother of the studio…read moreowner, and I couldn't be more proud of what this place has become. I've had the joy of watching it grow from the very beginning, and it's incredible to see the community it has built. The studio is so warm and welcoming. I've watched children's confidence bloom here, friendships form that will last a lifetime, and dancers continue to advance in their skills. Many of the kids think of it as their "dance family," and I can see why. The dancers themselves are turning out to be such wonderful little role models--kind, encouraging, and always making others feel welcome. Miss Christy pours her heart into this studio. She not only teaches and choreographs most of the classes but also puts so much thought and care into every detail--making sure things are done right and done well. She is wonderful with the kids--patient, encouraging, and clearly passionate about what she does. And while Christy is the heart of the studio, she has a couple of other wonderful teachers alongside her, who also bring their own energy, talent, and care to the classes. The tumbling program has been especially exciting to watch grow. Christy and Miss Jordan work together with the tumblers, helping them push toward new skills and celebrating with them when they succeed. It's a joy to see their faces light up when they finally master something new. I also want to take a moment to thank Heather for all of her help. There is so much work that goes into running a studio beyond what people see on the surface, and Heather's help has truly been a blessing. Another thing that makes Sparkle and Shine Dance stand out is Christy's dedication to keeping dance affordable. She works hard to make sure prices are significantly lower than other studios in the area because it matters to her that every child who wants to dance has the chance to. Whether kids are interested in recreational classes for fun or want the challenge of joining the competition team, Sparkle and Shine Dance offers a supportive, uplifting environment for them to thrive. As both a grandmother and a mother, I feel an enormous sense of pride in everything Christy and her team have accomplished. Sparkle and Shine Dance is truly something special.
