✨Senior Spotlight: Hannah✨


✨Hannah is a shining light with amazing dedication and talent across all styles! She has a big heart and a great sense of humor with a charismatic personality that shines on and off stage! Hannah is kind, gracious, and incredibly bright. Her sweet spirit will be dearly missed at the studio. Outside of being a stellar dancer, her impressive academics have earned her amazing scholarships for her next chapter in life at Mizzou. Be sure to scroll down to Hannah’s advice for younger dancers, it offers the sweetest glimpse into her big heart. 🤍

✨Post Graduation: “I will attend Mizzou to major in Biology on the Pre-Dental track. I will study with Mizzou’s Honors College, and I hope to explore future career options in Dental Medicine.”


✨✨Favorite Dance Memory: “My favorite dance memory was when I came into Saturday morning ballet class with paint and paintbrushes. I covered the star that I painted on the UDS canvases because my friends kept pointing out how ugly it was (I agreed with them and finally decided to fix it).”


✨Advice for Younger Dancers: "Always be gracious. Dance is something that we share. Oftentimes, life moves so fast that we forget to take a step back and appreciate those who have supported us along the way. Remember to stop every once in a while and think about the people in your life who deserve appreciation. At the end of every class, thank your teachers because they work harder than you know to set you up for success. Uplift your friends and remind them that they are strong and special to you. And, please, NEVER yell at your mothers!!! As a dancer, you will accomplish many great things with the help of others, so always show gratitude for those who guide you.”
