Ballet Dance Charms: Designed by Dancers for Dancers

Welcome to Incentives Inc., your source for authentic ballet dance charms created by real dancers. I'm Narica Collesso, owner and mother of two dancers who collaborate with me to design beautiful keepsakes for fellow dancers.

Our Story

As a dance mom, I struggled to find lasting rewards for my daughters' hard work. T-shirts outgrew and flowers wilted, but I wanted something enduring. In 2005, I acquired Nutcracker Jewelry by Incentives, founded in 1996 by dance instructor Barbara Selvy. This collection featured original charms in traditional Nutcracker poses and costumes.

Expanding Beyond Nutcracker

Responding to dancer requests, we expanded our offerings beyond Nutcracker-themed pieces. Working closely with my daughters and their dance teachers, we created Dance Jewelry by Incentives to meet the demand for ballet, tap, and modern dance charms.

Designed by Dancers, for Dancers

Our ballet dance charms are uniquely crafted with input from active dancers, ensuring authentic poses and details that resonate with the dance community. Each piece is a testament to the artistry and dedication of ballet dancers.
