For 10 days, Daily photographer Lauren Rock followed Chautauqua School of Dance Workshop II students, ages 13-15, through their classes and final Amphitheater performance to document the commitment and discipline required of a young ballerina.
“These girls are very young, but they are serious about dance,” Rock said. “Attending the School of Dance is one small step on their journey to becoming professional ballerinas. They learn to become adaptable — those who can pick up choreography quickly and adapt to different instructors and their styles are more likely to be successful. The dancers learn discipline and the importance of taking care of themselves and working hard to maintain the best physical form possible.”

Group 6 Boys stood behind the black curtain on the Amphitheater stage. Some of them were sweating and hopping around. Others stood calmly with their eyes closed, whispering instructions to themselves and going over the routine they have practiced for weeks.
The boys were the first act of the 29th annual Air Band Competition for the Boys’ and Girls’ Club. The pressure was on them to start the show with a bang.
Masters of ceremonies Bryce Hanson and Parker Benedict introduced the group to a crowd of about 400 in the Amp. As they were introduced, the butterflies seemingly flew from their stomachs, and a look of stone-cold confidence came across their faces.
