Stanley Holden.
As I was packing up to leave my dorm last night...I checked myspace to see all these bulletins about my favorite ballet teacher at home, Stanley Holden passed away. I found myself unable to control my tears or express anything. That man was the one teacher I have had these days that could make me LOVE ballet class. Im a jazz dancer who goes to ballet merely for the fact that I have to for technique. He made me WANT to take ballet. His sense of humor and his overall demeanor were so inspiring.
I feel so lucky to have studied ballet with such an AMAZING man. He was such a huge part of California Dance Theatre. I will never forget his laughing and his excitement when he saw us as young dancers develop into who we are now.
Thank you stanley. Thank you for giving us the most amazing gift anyone could receive. You were such an inspiration to me, you will be so incredibly missed. I love you.
Rest In Peace.
