HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Looking back, 2020 has been a trying, and difficult year..Often scary to say the least. It certainly has been hard live a “normal” life with masks on and social distancing. We all must keep moving forward while having a positive attitude today and better outlook for tomorrow.

As we have said before, Mrs. Hale’s official memorial, has had to be put on hold due to the pandemic. It is challenging to plan such a huge event not knowing when it can take place. It has been wonderful to see all the thoughts and memories pour in after her passing.

However in the meantime, thank you Jean-Hugues Feray, the Founder and Director of Paris Ballet and Dance and Paris Ballet Conservatory, and Deborah Marquez Founder and Director of Ballet Arts Dance Company. Their dedications and tributes were wonderfully thoughtful and very much appreciated.

ALSO
Thank you EVERYONE for always remembering and fostering the legacy of Marie Hale, and the Original Ballet Florida.

WE WISH EVERYONE A HAPPY, BETTER AND GREAT 2020.
Please, stay safe and healthy!

(Rehearsals were held in The Marie Hale Studio at Paris Ballet and Dance which Mr. Feray dedicated in August 2020.)
