YAGP 2015 Semi-finals San Francisco, CA February 13 - 15, 2015 Dear Participants, Parents and Teachers, It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the YAGP 2015 Semi-Finals in San Francisco, CA! We hope you will enjoy learning from each other as well as the many distinguished dance professionals gathered here. As many of you already know, we have designed the YAGP experience in such a way that every participant, regardless of their level of training or career goals, can benefit greatly from the multitude of educational and professional opportunities available throughout the event. Competition entries are organized by birth date starting with our youngest participants. The only exceptions to this order are special considerations due to costume changes. We are proud to say that in only 16 short years YAGP has become the largest student scholarship competition in the world. This is in large part due to the support of our participants and participating schools. In particular, we would like to thank the San Francisco, CA participating schools: Academy of American Ballet, CA Julia Ball-Dugan, Nicole Yip, Tanya Gunton-Carroll Academy of Classical Ballet - California, CA Crystal Petzel, Shannon Renee Bynum Agape Dance Academy, CA Melanie Useldinger, Julianna Roberts, Jill Litzenberger Alexandr Academy of Performing Arts, HI Danelle Watson Anchorage Classical Ballet Academy, AK Farah Canale, Michaelangelo Canale Angela Van School of Ballet, CA Angela Van Anti-Gravity School of Dance, Inc., CA Felicia Fry, Norine Brown Ayako School of Ballet, CA Ayako Takahashi Ballet Academy Ventura, CA Kathleen Noblin, Bretislav Weidlich Ballet North West Academy, OR Michele Major, Claire Maederer Ballet San Jose School, CA Dalia Rawson, Lihn Le Mai Bay Pointe Ballet School, CA Bruce Steivel, Chelsea Hix, Lindsey Salvadalena, Michael Dunsmore Bayer Ballet Academy, CA Inna Bayer, Ivan Goliandin Beijing BISS International School & Yuewuwan Dance Guangxu Du, Le Geng School, CHINA Bravissimo Dance Studio, CA Yoira Esquivel Brito, Amparo Brito, Jorge Esquivel Carmel Academy of Performing Arts, CA Carol Richmond, Philip Pegler, Sandra Burnham, Tia Brown Center Stage Dance Academy, CA Georgina Coleman City Ballet School of San Francisco, CA Galina Alexandrova Classical and Contemporary Dance, CA Anna Bribiescas Deane Dance Center, CA Allyson Deane, Don Schwennesen, Barbara Crockett, Linda Yun Dmitri Kulev Classical Ballet Academy, CA Dmitri Kulev, Jennifer Kulev Emerald Ballet Academy, WA Viktoria Titova, Erin McEachran In The Spotlight Dance Center, CA Ashley Gorden, Aubree Robbins Independent, CA Alexandra Lengyel, Michelle Ellis Independent, CA/ Derek Drilon Maricar Drilon Independent, CA/ Ivey Herren Season Winquest- DeAngelis Independent, CA/ Jacqueline Anthus Shaina Leibson, Monique Anthus Independent, CA/ Johanna Sigurdardottir Independent, CA/ Katherine Huggins Independent, CA/ Mari Kojima Independent, CA/ Sarah Staley Krista King Doherty, Ikolo Griffin Julia Bourlina Classical Ballet Academy, CA Julia Bourlina Ligioso Ballet Studio, CA Nicole Ligioso Lise la Cour's laCademy of Ballet, CA Lise la Cour, Ask la Cour Long Beach Ballet Academy, CA David Wilcox Marat Daukayev School of Ballet, CA Marat Daukayev, Hasmik Amirian Marin Dance Theater, CA Margaret Swarthout, Lynn Cox Marina Classical Ballet, CA Maryna Drazdova Melody Lane Academy of Dance, Music, and Drama, Tony Akin, Amy Akin WA Menlo Park Academy of Dance, CA Sarah-Jane Measor, Michael Lowe Ming Hai Wu School of Ballet, CA Ming Hai Wu Motion41 Dance, NE Matthew Carter, Susan Chowning, Erin Alarcon Northern California Dance Conservatory, CA Jen Bradford Pacific Ballet Academy, CA Marion Chaeff, Rima Chaeff, Anton Pankevich Palo Alto Ballet School, CA Ramon Moreno, Bernadette Connolly Peninsula Ballet Theater, CA David Fonnegra, Tamara Mudarra Peninsula School of Performing Arts, CA Tita Boulger, Marina Kalinina Pittsburgh Performing Arts Academy, CA Sharon Sobel-Idul, Ricky Navarro, Sharon Sobel Idul, Sarah Hernandez Rachel's Ballet, CA Rachel Tan, Ashley Bishop, Isabelle Sjahsam, Maria LaMance Royal School of Ballet, CA Cassandra Kamakeeaina San Diego School of Ballet, CA Robin Morgan, Ekaterina Erykaylova, Maxim Tchernychev Severance Conservatory, CA Carla Stallings-Lippert , Julie Ann Keller, Margaret Hord Shely Pack Dancers, CA Shely Pack-Manning, Grace Holmquist Shirley Winters Ballet, CA Shirley Winters, Terra Williams Sierra Nevada Ballet Academy, NV Rosine Bena Soo Dance Academy, CA Soo Park, Kevin Hockenberry South Bay Dance Center, CA Kit Ashleigh-Dean, Anton Pankevich Southland Ballet Academy, CA Salwa Rizkalla, Lana Brooks Spiral Ballet, NV Amanda Lawson State Street Ballet Professional Track, CA Rodney Gustafson, Megan Philipp, Meredith Harrill Susan Hayward School of Dancing, CA Susan Hayward, Sade Warner Technically Ballet, CA Pat Colgate Terra Nostra, PARAGUAY The Conservatory of Dance and Performing Arts Inc., Sarah E.
