Izzy Rodriguez (she/her) is a 7th grader in her first year with the Junior Company.

One of her favorite studio memories is from jazz last year when the whole class hugged their teacher Abby after she announced she was leaving. Her favorite piece to perform was hip hop because it closed the show with high energy and fun choreography. For Izzy, dance is about expression - letting everything else go and focusing on the movement. Outside of dance, she enjoys archery.

We got to take some great classes, watch some incredible performances, and Teen Jazz got to perform a piece that got feedback from professional judges!
