Had so much fun at my first ballet competition of the season! Thank you @yagp for the incredible opportunity 🩰 and @cherynecaselson and @adouthitboyd for the amazing classes. I also loved catching up with dance friends from around the country, especially those I’ve met at summer intensives 🥰

Thank you @stepnstretch and @ballet.rosa for outfitting me perfectly for class and the stage! You know me well ☺️

Grateful for my coach @michaelamacauley and my teachers @larkinballetconservatory who helped me prepare for this weekend, and for @chels_jenn who choreographed my solo “Unspoken” ❤️

Grateful to be doing what I love ❤️
Over a year ago, it seemed impossible.
Now I know that God has a way of opening doors meant for you.
You can rewrite the stars, if you believe.

Registration is OPEN for the YAGP 2027 Stuttgart Job Fair! Don’t miss this unique one-stop audition opportunity to be seen by leading dance companies from across North America. Last year alone, more than 80 job offers were extended to talented artists from around the world through the YAGP Job Fairs in Nashville and Stuttgart. 👏

Every ballet journey begins with one audition—and one moment that can change everything. ✨

For @ayako.tsukada0526 Ayako Tsukada, that journey began at the YAGP 2026 Job Fair in Stuttgart, where he received a contract to the @oopperabaletti_dancers Finnish National Opera and Ballet, where she is currently is dancing. Her story is a powerful reminder that one audition can open the door to a dream—and your journey could be next. 💫

‼️We are so excited to have the Finnish National Opera and Ballet join us this year in Stuttgart. STAY TUNED for MORE companies that will be joining us this season!‼️

Visit yagp.org for more information and apply today!💪

Our first @yagp semi-final of the season ✨

Knowing that he still has so much to learn as a dancer, we feel truly humbled that he has received this recognition. We are sincerely grateful for this valuable experience.

Navigating ballet as both parent and child is not always easy, which makes us even more appreciative of the teachers who guide and support him.

Our heartfelt thanks to @southlandballetacademy for providing such a wonderful environment, to @meg.doheny and @ilya_nikurov for their choreography and guidance in contemporary, and to YAGP for providing these valuable opportunities for young dancers.

We hope he will continue to approach his journey with gratitude and humility as he works toward the next YAGP semi-final.
