“ Phyllis danced these for the people:
graceful, tireless, well.
With partners Gary Burne
and Eduard Greyling too,
her magnificence inspired the audience.
To her, flowers they threw.
Reward comes easily,
when you put yourself to the test. ”

“ Her magic was passed on to others
to help them become their best.
Her students spread accross the world,
inspired by her ducky feet.
They dance on while we watch,
dreaming from our seats.
Phyllis Spira was dancing by the age of four. That was just the beginning of her wonderful journey towards becoming one of South Africa’s Prima Ballerinas.
