About Manhattan
Movement & Arts Center
Manhattan Movement & Arts Center was developed by Rose
Caiola as the home of the Manhattan Youth Ballet, a graded,
pre-professional ballet academy and performance company. Ms.
Caiola, a former dancer and actress, founded the academy in
the fall of 1994 as Studio Maestro at 48 W. 68th Street, and
today serves as the youth ballet's executive artistic
director.
The school is modeled after the European academies. The
Manhattan Youth Ballet has acquired a reputation for
excellent teaching in an intimate and individually
supportive environment. The school's graduates have danced
professionally with American Ballet Theatre, New York City
Ballet, Nederlands Dans Theater, Ballet de España, San
Francisco Ballet
and Complexions.
As the ballet academy grew, the search for a larger space
inspired in Ms. Caiola a highly personal vision of a studio
and theater complex that would encompass all aspects of
dance education and performance.
mmac opened its doors in June 2008, occupying a dramatic
bi-level space within The Element, a luxury high-rise
condominium. In addition to the Manhattan Youth Ballet,
mmac's studios and theater host daily adult dance and
fitness classes, the mmac Kids program, summer intensive
programs, as well as an array of performances and special
events.

About The American Cancer Society
The American Cancer Society combines an unyielding passion
with nearly a century of experience to save live and end
suffering from cancer. As a global grassroots force of more
than three million volunteers, we fight for every birthday
threatened by every cancer in every community. We save lives
by helping people stay well by preventing cancer or
detecting it early; helping people get well by being there
for them during and after a cancer diagnosis; by finding
cures through investment in groundbreaking discovery; and by
fighting back by rallying lawmakers to pass laws to defeat
cancer and by rallying communities worldwide to join the
fight. As the nation's largest non-governmental investor in
cancer research, contributing more than $3.4 billion, we
turn what we know about cancer into what we do. As a result,
more than 11 million people in America who have had cancer
and countless more who have avoided it will be celebrating
birthdays this year.
