We truly have had the best week ever watching our dancers rehearse for and perform in "Collective Soul", our annual Contemporary Concert. Our incredible faculty created the most fun, beautiful and inspirational pieces to highlight the hard work their dancers have put in at the studio all year! Congratulations to all of our dancers for putting their hearts into each gorgeous dance! Thank you to our faculty for putting their souls into every step. And thank you to Viewmont High School and their wonderful stage crew for taking such great care of us once again! We couldn't have asked for a more uplifting week with more inspiring people!
