Gratitude is what is most prominent for me as I write about CTB. I am so grateful for the support we receive from individuals, foundations, and government  and corporate sponsors.  I am equally grateful for the brilliant work of the talented artists who share their passions and convey their belief in the potential of our children by teaching them to strive for excellence.

CTB is part of a huge movement - the Associates of National Dance Institute. These associate companies are inspiring 50,000 children a year - children whom without these programs probably would not experience the incredible opportunity to dance to live music, create unique shows, and be guided by professionals using wildly effective teaching techniques.

Thank you to all for making CTB thrive.
