Founder of the Baby and Binky Ballet program at The Performer's Academy. The program is ballet based and encompasses creative movement, real ballet positions and terms, and choreography. We place a sticker, eithr a ladybug or a heart on their right shoe. This way, the ballerina knows where her right foot is. We "kick" the ladybug, we "point" the ladybug - otherwise - it's just a foot!

Rya's classes are growing in leaps and bounds becaues in addition to they children and their parents having fun, the classes are kept affordable - a mere $6.50 per class. Classes are purchased on a card basis or monthly program.

These ballerinas have appeared at The Orange County Faire, The Laguna Hills Mall and recently at the "What's Up for Kids Expo". See the baby ballet page for further pictures.

Rya's classes are really special because they are filled with love. She knows everyone's name, their personalities and their parents. She is truly amazing with these children and the program's success is based entirely on her. We all love Rya.
