As I have had the opportunity to sit back and reflect on this weekend, all I can think to say is thank you! My heart is so full of gratitude and love for all of you, for our students, for my staff and instructors, for the Lord that has brought me to this point! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I have been at this studio all 15 years. We had so many ups and downs, but through it all, this place has always been home. When I bought the studio back in 2023, I had no idea that in three short years, we would grow in such incredible ways! This past weekend, we had over 150 students grace the stage and over 1000 people attend the shows. I am just in awe of all that the Lord is doing in our not-so-tiny studio.

I am just so thankful for the love and support that we have received from you! Parents and students, we are so glad to call you part of the TRF family!

To my incredible staff, I could not do any of this without you! I truly believe we have the best staff anyone could ask for, and I am so thankful for each and every one of them! Thank you for the love you pour into your classes and your students.

To our TRF students, thank you for allowing this to be your safe space, your creative outlet, and your home away from home! You are so loved, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to help you grow in your talents and passions.

To our TRF parents and guardians, thank you for giving us the opportunity to love and push your kids to be the best that they can be each year. Thank you for the kind words, support, and prayers. Thank you for the countless hours spent driving to and from the studio, helping your students practice, encouraging them to keep trying when things seem hard, and being your students’ biggest fans!

Rolling Out The Red Carpet was by far one of the most fun recitals to date. I cannot wait to see all that the Lord has in store for TRF in this summer and the coming 2026-2027 dance year! I hope to see you all back for next year’s recital “Music Time Machine!”

All my love and gratitude,
Mrs. Caitie
