\n\tIt\u2019s official: after 25 years with the American Ballet Theatre (ABT), Misty Copeland is taking her final bow. Her last performance is set for Oct. 22, 2025, at 6:15 p.m. EST at Lincoln Center in New York City, and fans around the world can tune in to the livestream of her farewell dance here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Once called a child prodigy, Copeland made history<\/a> in 2015 when she became the first African American woman to become a principal dancer (meaning lead) at ABT. In an interview with Pointe Magazine earlier this year, Copeland said of her decision to retire from the famed company, \u201cI\u2019m not leaving \u2014 it\u2019s just the end of my time at ABT.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tBunheads Children\u2019s Book by Misty Copeland\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\tTo celebrate her incredible career, supporters are giving Copeland her flowers in more ways than one. They\u2019re snapping up her bestselling children\u2019s books, inspired by her own ballet journey.\t<\/p>\n

\n\tHer debut title, Bunheads (first published in 2020), quickly became a New York Times bestseller<\/a>. The vividly illustrated story \u201cfollows a young Misty discovering her passion for dance<\/a>,\u201d according to the Amazon<\/a> product description. It\u2019s ideal for readers between the ages of 4 to 8, although we think anyone can enjoy. The 32-page picture book continues to rank among the top 100 children\u2019s books<\/a> on Amazon, and demand is expected to rise as the world bids farewell to Copeland\u2019s ABT chapter.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tBunheads, Act 2: The Dance of Courage Children\u2019s Book by Misty Copeland\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\tFor those who can\u2019t get enough, the newly released sequel, Bunheads Act 2: The Dance of Courage (September 2025), includes the same characters, and just like the first, it\u2019s modeled after Copeland\u2019s own life.\t<\/p>\n

\n\tBut if you\u2019d like to take things a step (or should we say chass\u00e9) further, Copeland currently offers a MasterClass<\/a> in ballet, where she teaches techniques and gives helpful commentary, for just $10 per month. There\u2019s truly no better way to learn the 5, 6, 7, and 8s<\/a> of ballet than from the woman who redefined it.<\/p>\n
