Jan 29th - The young Venezuelan ballerina Fabiana Piñero, member of the Ballet de la Mar company, from Margarita island (State of Nueva Esparta) accomplished the 2nd Place in the international competition "Ballet Beyond Borders" celebrated in Missoula, Montana, United States, between January 09th and 13th, this year.

This was announced by the ballet coach Martha Ildiko, director of the company Ballet de la Mar. Fabiana attended the contest thanks to a scholarship obtained after having won last year the Silved Medal in the A division, from the 9th Grand Prix of the "Active Dancing" contest in Panama.

It's worth standing out that the directive board of the course didn't want to leave aside the dancers from countries with political and economic problems, as well as natural disasters. Therefore, they opened a special chapter for includying them through a video. This allowed the participation of a huge amount of dancers from diverse places of the world. The remarkable ballerina Micaela de Prince was the jury in this edition.



Fabiana Piñero participated with the variation"Nights of Walpurgis". "I'd like to grant Fabiana Piñero the Second Place. As soon as she walked on the stage, she captured my total attention. Her technique and art were wondeful. She really played with music, and she seemed to be enjoying herself. It was a great opportunity for her to prove all she has to offr. I hope to see her grow. Congratulations", Micaela de Prince said.
