Slum Ballet

Everyone deserves the ability to learn ballet. Sadly in Nairobi Kenya a lot of people don't have the resources to learn ballet. Thankfully their is a studio where girls and boys have the ability to learn ballet after school thanks to the UK- based charity Annos Africa. These children get to live their dreams and learn the techniques in ballet, some kids are even getting scholarships for school and some have even gone to prestigious ballet schools like the Dance Center Kenya. Mike Wamaya used to dance professionally but now teachers ballet to multiple students. They mostly dance barefoot but they do get used dance shoes donated to them. This is so amazing that people who might not have enough money get the chance to follow their dreams and dance.  Dance is something for everyone, you can relive stress get exercise and create art.
