Published: Jan. 18, 2022 at 7:49 AM EST
LAFARGEVILLE, New York (WWNY) - The most challenging thing about ballet for Vera Blackford is its technique and structure.
“But that’s also what I love most about it,” she said, because it allows you to “add in little specks of yourself with the technique.”
The dancer from LaFargeville is this week’s 7 News Arts All-Star.
She says she wants to work in the medical health field, maybe even helping fellow dancers with their struggles.
