Bayer students meet Romeo and Juliet!

From Romeo & Juliet (Ballet San Jose) Ramon Moreno signs a program for a young student

Following Ballet San Jose's February 28th, 2010 performance of Romeo and Juliet on Sunday students of the Bayer Ballet Academy (Los Altos) met with Ramon Moreno (who danced the role of Romeo) and Maria Jacobs-Yu (who danced the role of Juliet). Ramon Moreno is also an instructor at the Bayer Ballet Academy.

"Part of ballet is making dreams come true ... and who wouldn't want to meet Romeo and Juliet?" said Inna Bayer, "And, more seriously, such meetings with professional dancers inspire the students and help them understand the things that focus, discipline and artistry can bring to their lives." Inna Bayer is the founder and ballet mistress of the Bayer Ballet Academy.

This meeting was the third in a series of "Meet the Stars" events organized by Inna Bayer for students at her Los Altos ballet school, which teaches in the world-famous Russian style.
