Get excited! It is ANOTHER TDC staff birthday! Let's all send some birthday love to our very own ballerina and winter show mastermind, Mrs. Ginger! Hopefully, she is NOT wielding a paintbrush, altering costumes, or feverishly working on the computer today in preparation- but let's be for real- she probably is... Here is hoping she has a RELAXING and awesome birthday!

Fun fact: I got in trouble for dancing while doing my work instead of sitting in 2nd grade.. (shoutout Ms. Rae)

Wow. How are we here at our last senior post of the year?? Bryce is truly special. She is a one of a kind dancer and if you’ve ever seen a show at TDC you would agree. Nothing captures her spirit more than performing and when she’s on stage there’s a special kind of magic. We’re going to miss Bryce with our whole hearts and so excited to watch her shine for years to come. ✨✨

Maddie’s energy transcends any room she walks into. She’s smart, witty and so much fun to have in class. We cannot believe it’s time to say goodbye to Maddie because it feels like she’s been a part of TDC forever. We’re going to miss her with our whole hearts but know she’s going to make a phenomenal nurse in the future 🥰

Favorite TDC Memory: Getting to grow up with the best group I could ask for, but more specifically summer lock ins or the infamous chair moment 🙈

Kendal is a light. She radiates sunshine wherever she goes and her positivity and smile lights up any room she’s in. She’s bold, a phenomenal performer, and so incredibly kind to the younger students. Kendal has been such an integral part of our program for so long and we’re not quite sure what we’re going to do without her. But one thing we know for sure is that she is going to excel at anything she puts her mind to. She’s a star. 🌌

We’re so excited to see what this next chapter brings for her and know it’s going to be amazing. 💕

Amelia truly is the best. She’s intelligent, witty and one of the easiest people to work with. We’re going to miss turning to her to make sure we’re doing the choreography correctly or hearing whatever fun anecdote she has to add to the conversation. We love Amelia so much and are going to miss her immensely! 💗
