SFB Promotions 2019

[Bruce Wall]

Just to note that Esteban Hernandez is a RBS grad and brother to Issac Hernandez of ENB fame and Madison Keesler was herself formerly with ENB.  Look forward to seeing them at Sadler's Wells.  Congratulations to all.

Yes congratulations to all. So pleased for Madison.

[capybara]

Very pleased for Madison Keesler - a beautiful dancer.

Esteban Hernandez was, of course, part of that amazing RBS year which included O'Sullivan, Sambe, Ball, Acri, Zamora, Shang and Silingardi.

Which Zamora's that, capybara?  (Makes a change for me to be asking for first names rather than surnames  )

[Bluebird]

Just checked my old RBS classlists and that RBS year (which graduated in 2013) also included current Royal Ballet Company members Annette Buvoli, Mariko Sasaki and David Donnelly.   

 

The Zamora referred to by Capybara is Joan Zamora.  He initially went to ENB but I believe he moved to Joffrey Ballet a few years ago.

Oh, of course.  I knew I ought to know it.

I'd forgotten about Annette Buvoli because she skipped the second year of the RBS and wasn't originally in that particular group. Shouldn't have omitted David Donnelly, though!
