Four years ago, I entered your school as a rusty "bunhead" with
mediocre technique who wanted to dance again, for myself, for fun. I
never imagined that my childhood passion for ballet could be reignited
as fervently as it was in your dance studio. You have inspired me. You
have fired me up. And you have taught me so much. I leave a much
better dancer than I ever thought I could be - thanks to you.
It has been a great honor to be in your shows, especially the ballets
- you know how much I love the ballets!.. But in your school, every
dance is a work of art. And every time I watch a dance I was not part
of, I wish I had been in it. I feel privileged to have watched you
create magic in the studio all these years. Your energy, dedication
and love of dance are catching. And you have a rare gift of being able
to share dance with so many people. I couldn't have found a better
place to continue my dance education as an adult, after a long break.
And I am not sure that I will ever find a studio as comfortable and
uplifting as the Outer Banks Centre for Dance. In your studio, I have
found a home away from home and was "re-born" as a dancer. I am very
sad that I have to leave, but what you have taught me and the
experiences we have shared will always be with me.
Thank you so much!!!

I just wanted to tell you once again what I thought of this year's recital. It was fabulous! You outdid yourself. Not only were the costumes visually appealing, but you were able to completely and fully showcase the girls and their dance steps.
Every detail was astounding-the dance steps, the lights, the movements, costumes, etc. I spoke to 6 parents, and they all said the exact same thing. They all felt that you showcased the dance steps the kids practiced year-long. All the dancers were focused and were spot-on.
How lucky we are to have such a talented person on the Outer Banks.
Thank you for all your hard work; words of encouragement and discipline. Elizabeth has gained much maturity, responsibility and dance techniques from being your student. |
