The whole ballet world mourns the sudden passing of Michaela Mabinty DePrince (1995 - 2024, at age 29), a beautiful star and pioneering ballerina who overcame unbelievable odds and changed the ballet world forever.
We ourselves were shocked and greatly saddened by the news, she was certainly gone too soon. We want to dedicate this video to her, and also to her adoptive mother, Elaine DePrince (1947 - 2024), who truly showed the world the beauty and transformative power of a mother's love. May both women rest in power.
Sending all our love to Michaela and Elaine's family and friends; we're behind y'all, we support y'all. Please leave them your kind comments below to bring them peace and comfort during this time.
Here is our video tribute in loving memory of Michaela and Elaine DePrince <3
