IABF 2023 Dancer Highlight: Bridget on Finding Joy and Friendship in Ballet

Join us for an inspiring dancer highlight featuring Bridget at the International Adult Ballet Festival (IABF) 2023. At Broche Ballet, we believe that dance is more than just individual technique; it is a shared journey. In this interview, Bridget reflects on the incredible time she had meeting amazing people and how the bond between dancers elevates the entire experience.

The world of adult ballet can sometimes feel isolating, especially when practicing at home or in a competitive studio environment. However, festivals like IABF prove that the support of friends and a shared love for the art form are transformative. Bridget captures this sentiment perfectly, emphasizing that the joy of performing is amplified when you are surrounded by a community that cheers for your every relevé and celebrates your progress from the first plié of the day to the final grand jeté.

In this highlight, we see the heart of what Broche Ballet stands for: inclusivity, passion, and the power of connection. Whether you are working on your tendu at the barre or preparing for your first time en pointe, having a community of like-minded dancers makes the hard work feel like play. Bridget’s experience reminds us that the relationships we build in the studio often become as important as the steps we learn.

As you listen to Bridget’s thoughts on the IABF 2023, you will be reminded of why we dance. It is about the best time spent with others who share your dedication. It is about doing the things you love with people who inspire you to reach higher.

At Broche Ballet, we are dedicated to providing that space where every dancer feels they belong, regardless of where they are in their journey. Explore the beauty of connection through ballet and see how a supportive environment can change your perspective on training and performance.
