Meet Karlee. Karlee is one of our Advance Dance Team members. She had heart valve replacement surgery on May 26 and was back in the studio last night. So happy to see her feeling great after only a two week recovery. Simply amazing.

Great recitals today! Congrats to all of our dancers. Don’t blink…one minute your dancer is in the preschool class and the next they are taking a final bow.
