Danesghar worked with Ainza on the transition, giving Dance Arts and the Marat Daukayev School of Ballet, which sublets studios, more time to close out the spring semester and final tap workshop. Without a home, Pamela and Marat are struggling to find a similar space of 12,000 to 15,000 square feet that’s within their budget. In Russia, ballet schools are funded with government support, Marat said.
