Happy Summer! As summer winds down we reached out to students to see what they have been up to and if they were dancing this summer in one of the many programs across the country. Students are currently at Miami City Ballet, SAB, Cincinnati Ballet, The Rock, Ballet Chicago, Boston Ballet, Colorado Ballet, Saint Louis Ballet and so many more! Happy dancing to all our students this summer!

These students benefited so much about learning the benefits of positive talk and the disadvantage of negative talk as dancers!
Thank you to Kristen and Michelle!
