Nutcracker dancers visit Montessori students

The students of the Montessori School of Greater Hartford had a special visit from professional guest dancers from NYC, currently featured in Ballet Theatre Company's The Nutcracker. Much to the delight of the students, the dancers demonstrated movements from this weekend's upcoming performance, they described the tools and dedication needed to be a professional dancer and answered numerous questions about dance and ballet.  To the delight of the dancers, the Montessori students took this as an impromptu opportunity to have professional dancers review their chorography and signing as they shared a few songs from their upcoming Winter Sing Along performance.
