formance skills and artistry.

Dance in Kiev, Achmedowa has danced with Nureyev, Malakov
and Fukagwa.

For the first time in its 20-year history, the Vancouver Goh
Bailet will hold summer classes on the North Shore.

The acclaimed ballet school has partnered with North

-. Vancouver Recreation Commission and Unison Way to offer bal-
let sessions for ages five through 12.

Locals may know Unison Way as a martial arts centre but
president Daniel Lo has big plans for his cedar and glass facility
on the banks of Mosquito Creek. Ballet is the first of many new
programs designed to make it a “centre for high cutnure,” says
Le.
