Renowned ballerina Stella Abrera joins host Alissa Hsu Lynch on The Leadership Dance to reflect on her extraordinary career with American Ballet Theatre and her journey from the stage to shaping the next generation of dancers. Stella opens up about growing up in a home filled with music and discipline, the perseverance behind rising to principal dancer, and the back injury that nearly ended her career—but ultimately strengthened her resilience and leadership. Now as Artistic Director of the ABT Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School, she shares how she's guiding young dancers with grace, grit, and vision for ballet's future.

💡 Key Takeaways:

Success in any field is never a solo act; it's built through trust, mentorship, and collaboration.

Adversity can become your greatest teacher — recovery and reinvention often reveal deeper strength and purpose.

Growth happens when you step outside your comfort zone.
