Eva Amurri, actress and lifestyle blogger, recently shared a proud parenting moment as her son Major took a significant step in his ballet journey. The actress, who is the daughter of Susan Sarandon, revealed that her son has officially auditioned for the prestigious School of American Ballet in New York City.
In an emotional Instagram post, Amurri shared that this audition came after approximately a year of consideration. “After about a year of considering it, and deciding he wants to pursue a higher level of training, Maj officially auditioned for @sab_nyc this evening!!” she wrote in her caption. The post included multiple photos showing Major’s journey, including images of him in ballet attire and during practice sessions.
The images show Major in various ballet poses and practice moments, capturing his dedication to the art form. One photo shows him in a classic ballet stance, while others appear to document his preparation for the audition.
Amurri expressed overwhelming pride in her son’s decision to pursue ballet at a more advanced level: “To say we are proud is the greatest understatement. I’m so happy for him pushing himself to do this, and for his passion for this incredible art form.”
The mother of three concluded her post with words of encouragement for her son, writing, “Major, you inspire us ever day. Fingers crossed, buddy!!!!!!” The sentiment reflects the supportive environment Amurri has created for her children to pursue their individual passions.
This audition represents an important milestone for Major, as the School of American Ballet (SAB) is the official training academy of the New York City Ballet and is considered one of the premier ballet academies in the United States. Founded by legendary choreographer George Balanchine, SAB has trained countless professional dancers who have gone on to successful careers in major ballet companies worldwide.
Amurri, who turned 40 earlier this year, has been openly sharing her parenting journey with her followers. The lifestyle blogger and actress has three children and has been transparent about her experiences as a mother, including navigating life after divorce. Her Instagram profile is filled with candid moments of family life, parenting challenges, and celebrations.
The actress has been balancing her own career growth with parenting. Amurri, whose acting credits include roles in films like “Saved!” and “The Banger Sisters,” has transitioned to focusing more on her lifestyle blog, Happily Eva After, where she shares content on parenting, home decor, recipes, and personal reflections.
As Major awaits the results of his audition, Amurri’s post has garnered support from followers who are cheering on the young dancer. The outcome of the audition remains to be seen, but regardless of the result, Amurri’s pride in her son’s courage to pursue his passion is evident.
