Thank you so much for the Anali Reizvikh Masterclass Scholarship. This scholarship is very encouraging, and a great help to me. I will use it towards my summer school fees at the National Ballet School this summer. This year I enjoyed my first junior masterclass at Surrey Festival. In any masterclass I go to I always love trying different styles of teaching. I also really appreciated all the helpful feedback and comments from the fantastic adjudicators, that I will definitely use to improve my dancing. Thank you to all the amazing staff for putting on such a great festival! Thanks Again!

I would like to thank you for supporting the Surrey Festival and Dancers like myself. It really touches me, when people support such a beautiful art form such as dance. This scholarship will help me pursue my dreams to become a professional dancer. I train everyday for around 4 hours in a half-day schooling program. Which you can only imagine how much my family sacrifices for me. Which is why receiving this scholarship really touches me. I greatly appreciate your generousity.
