For Victoria Clark, “The Nutcracker” is as much a holiday tradition as mistletoe, poinsettias and yule logs. The Northfield resident has been putting on a shortened version of the classic ballet with her New Motion Dance Studio students for nine years, and nothing was going to stop her from doing it for a 10th — not even COVID-19. “I just knew that we needed to do something, something traditional for them,” said Clark, who also teaches dance at Chartertech High School for the Performing Arts in Somers Point. “I knew it was going to be a challenge. I knew we wouldn’t have an auditorium. I knew we wouldn’t be able to be on a stage with an audience. We had to come up with new ideas.”
