Next Generation returns October 17 and 31 at the Khoury Center

The Next Generation, Dance Alive National Ballet’s youth company and the student performing group of Pofahl Studios, recently performed at Meet the Dancers and left the audience wanting more. The dancers are strong performers, and just as strong as teachers. When people asked when they could see the 3939 NW 34th Street, Gainesville, FL 32605group again, the answer was already on the calendar.

​

Join us for A Dream in Motion, a free mini performance and tour at the Khoury Family Center for the Arts, the future home of Dance Alive National Ballet.
