Taisia, a 7th-grade student, has been practicing folk dancing since she was six. She dreamed of attending a rehearsal of the Igor Moiseyev Folk Dance Ensemble, and Vladimir Putin made that dream come true.
Accompanied by her mother and brother, Taisia visited the Igor Moiseyev Ensemble’s building, where they met with the ensemble’s artistic director, Yelena Shcherbakova, a student of Igor Moiseyev. The girl toured the theatre, including Igor Moiseyev’s office, and attended a master class with ballet dancers as well as a rehearsal of the ensemble.
The President extended his New Year greetings to Taisia and her family.
