Ballet could arguably be the most demanding form of dance \u2013 requiring a high level of discipline from ballerinas. They must maintain strength and flexibility to master techniques like grande allegro (big leaps), turnouts for clean footwork, and port de bras (movement of the arms).<\/p>\n<div style=\"height: 9px;\"><\/div>\n<p>Asmita has remained disciplined in her practice and it shows when she\u2019s on stage performing \u2013 proving to be a graceful and strong ballerina.

Before entering middle school, Asmita successfully completed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/reading-program\" aria-label=\"Kumon Reading Program\">Kumon Reading Program<\/a>. She can say she has already analyzed notable pieces of literature that are typically covered in high school, like William Golding\u2019s <em>Lord of the Flies <\/em>and Oscar Wilde\u2019s <em>The Importance of Being Earnest<\/em>. In the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kumon.com\/math-program\" aria-label=\"Kumon Math Program\">Kumon Math Program<\/a>, she is currently working above grade level on concepts like exponential equations and higher degree functions.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height: 9px;\"><\/div>\n<p>Having gained an academic edge over her peers, she is now able to help her classmates that are having trouble with certain concepts in school.
