The style has changed. The love of performing? That goes way back. 💜🔥

From ballet and musical theatre at Small Fry to the hip hop dancer she is today, Ines has made this journey her own.

We’re so proud of you, Ines. Watching you grow up on our stages and find your style has been something special.

Some days, we still see the little dancer in the tutu. 🥹💜

From her Small Fry Dance Club days to the PCPA stage, watching Nika grow has been such a special part of our story.

Behind every performance are years of learning, practice, and moments like these. Getting to cheer our dancers on as they grow? That’s our favorite part.
