My Students

Unfortunately as budgets tighten the Arts often feel the tightest squeeze.

These high school students study tap, ballet, jazz, lyrical, modern, hip hop, pom and acrobats.

Many of my students spend hours a week in the studio perfecting their technique. This group of ladies is well respected by their peers for their tremendous work ethic and talent. They are perfectionists on the stage as well as in the classroom.

My Project

We need new costumes! I am requesting new dance tops, shorts and tights to use at community and school performances. I want the girls to be dressed for success. When they feel good, they perform better. These are such wonderful dancers I want them to appear as professional as the act.

This project will give my dancers confidence.

They will look like the top notch dancers they are. Please help us reach our full potential as a group. Thank you for partnering with us!
