GET TO THE POINTE-EP 7 W/HANHI TRAN

Episode seven is really something special!  Hanhi offers a new perspective on dance competitions that we haven't discussed on the podcast yet.  For Hanhi, who was born in Vietnam, international ballet competitions like Canaan Dance, Youth America Grand Prix, and ADC IBC - Youth International Ballet Competition connected her to schools that provided scholarships for her training that have been life changing!  They afforded her the opportunity to train at Kirov Academy of Washington DC, Ellison Ballet, The Bolshoi Ballet Academy, and now Nationale Balletacademie- The Dutch National Ballet Academy!  Now, in her final year of highschool, she will be able to pursue a associates or bachelors degree in coordination with Academie voor Theater en Dans !   AND hear how an international student experienced the pandemic.  I admire Hanhi so much and so thankful she joined me as a guest! Episode will be live tomorrow morning whereever you get your podcasts! This podcast is owned and operated by Kali Kleiman.
