Dance also enhances self-esteem, builds confidence, teaches socialization skills and gives you a sense of well-being. Within the last decade, dance has been recognized and acknowledged for its therapeutic mind-body restorative capabilities to make one β€œwhole” again. Dance is truly an investment with amazing benefits.

Feeling incredibly amazed, blessed, and proud tonight. To my Sound Motion Dance Academy team: you are all so much more than just a dance company to me. You are family. 🀍

Everyone always sees the beautiful routines that hit the stage, but what happens behind the scenes is what truly sets this team apart. The way our dancers seamlessly step up to support one another when someone needs it most, and how everyone instantly jumps in to helpβ€”that is the real magic.

Today, our studio won the ADCC Studio of Excellence Award! This is no small feat, but it is entirely due to these amazing dancers and our incredible support system. You all pour your heart and soul into everything we do. From regular classes to company rehearsals, to these long competition weekends, there is truly nothing that this group of people cannot accomplish.

I am also incredibly blessed to be surrounded by such an amazing group of instructors, staff, and alumni dancers. You show up at each and every event to make sure these dancers are performance-ready and fully supported in absolutely everything they do. I know that myself and all of the other instructors feel so proud and truly lucky to be able to teach and mentor each and every one of you.

I want to send out some major gratitude to the rest of the village that makes this happen:

To our amazing moms: A huge thank you for keeping the kids so well hydrated and fed today! Putting together such great lunch and snack options on such short notice to keep everyone’s energy up was an absolute lifesaver.

To my backstage quick-change moms: You never stop and barely take a moment to breathe! You make sure every single dancer is fully costumed, hair changes are perfect, and those frantic backstage quick changes happen without a hitch.

To our amazing team of Prop Dads: Thank you for your hard work and for helping to bring my visions to life on that stage.

Watching you guys go from rehearsal to stageβ€”seeing a raw concept take form and fully blossom into the beautiful story you tell out thereβ€”is what inspires me each and every day. ✨
