They just have to keep on dancing! Ballet Manila artists love their craft so much that even when they’re away from the stage, they end up busting a move, trying out some steps or at least striking a ballet pose or two.

Joan Emery Sia was on Cloud 9. After all, she had just scored a double victory at the 2015 Asian Grand Prix – the Bronze medal in the Senior Female Category and also the Bronze in Pas de Deux along with partner Romeo Peralta. The dancers celebrated Ballet Manila’s resounding success in the annual competition with a trip to Hong Kong Disneyland before heading home. While traipsing down the theme park’s Main Street, Joan showed off her winning form. If Disneyland is known as “the happiest place on earth,” then this can very well be described as “the happiest pose on earth.”
