If your male dancer wants to wear a pink skirt, so be it! If he wants to go en pointé, so be it! Why do we feel the need to keep OTHER PEOPLE in boxes just because WE don’t agree?

If you’re looking for a sign that you’re loved and supported for who you are, this is it.

1 of my favorite things is when I see our dancers being independent, heating up their dinners & doing their homework on their breaks, starting their warm-ups on their own, etc. Part of the reason they love spending time in-studio because it becomes like our own little club house.

This is probably the most insane, unpredictable, and complicated season of my career yet somehow I have never been more confident in my teams ability to persevere.

I mean, if Le Jazz Hot and Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy aren’t heard, is it really even a dance competition?

Some days you may train hard. Some days you may take a nap instead. Everyday, you do you.

One year ago today, our adorable daughter, Ava (born with Spina Bifida), started ballet. This week she tried on her brand new recital outfit... And here's her reaction:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again....
It’s not about the amount of hours you spend in the studio.
It’s about the work you put in while you’re there.
Don’t just be there. SHOW UP. For your teacher, for your classmates.....and most importantly, for YOURSELF!

Stop teaching ur dancers to hate their “rival” studios 🙄 We ALL love to dance. When we see each other at comp, we should be applauding each other not talking shit. Instead look around +smile @ the fact that ur in a room filled w/ other ppl who ❤️ dance just like you do.
