Sreya Sathish-Kumar ⁕ Ballerina

Welcome to a window into my journey as a ballet dancer. Starting my first ballet class at the age of four, Ballet has been my passion for the past 13 years. As I immersed myself in the ballet community, I had the fortune of attending many summer programs and competitions around the world. I eventually got the opportunity to continue my training at the reputed Ellison Ballet Professional Program, for which I moved from Seattle to New York City at the age of 16.
