Today, we gather as a community to remember and celebrate the remarkable life of Wendy, a legendary ballet teacher who touched the lives of countless individuals. As we mark her birthday, we pay tribute to the immense impact she had on the world of dance and the enduring legacy she leaves behind.

Wendy was more than just a ballet teacher; she was a guiding light, a mentor, and a source of inspiration to generations of dancers. Her passion, energy, and unparalleled skill in the art of ballet were evident in every step she took and every lesson she imparted. From her early days at LACHSA to her journey through life, Wendy's unwavering dedication to her craft left an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of all who had the privilege of learning from her.

Though Wendy may no longer physically be with us, her spirit lives on through the dancers she taught.
Let us forever hold her in our hearts, cherishing the legacy she has left behind. On this special day, we honor Wendy, our beloved ballet teacher, mentor, and friend, and we celebrate the remarkable life she lived. This year, please consider honoring her memory with a contribution to the newly established Wendy Lawson Ballet Legacy Fund.

Our goal is to maintain a fund ensuring that Wendy's legacy is honored at LACHSA through dedicated training and performance of classical Ballet repertoire. For more information please go to
