We’re not even going to pretend we are not emotional! Tears of pride are definitely being shed for our three incredible seniors as they head off to prestigious universities for dance this fall. 🤍

These girls have been part of our family since they were little, and it’s hard to believe it’s time to watch them take this next big step. Being part of our conservatory program, we’ve spent almost every day of the week together, growing, learning, and pushing toward their dreams.

What they’ve accomplished this year has been nothing short of inspiring, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have been part of their journey. We are so proud of you always. ✨

Our final senior spotlight is Alexis! Alexis has been part of our dance family for her entire dance journey, and watching her grow into the beautiful, passionate dancer she is today has been so special. Her dedication, artistry, and love for dance have left a lasting mark on our studio. We are beyond proud to share that she has committed to Elaine Seidman’s alma mater, 🩰 We know this is only the beginning of an incredible new chapter, and we cannot wait to see all the amazing things Alexis will accomplish. We love you!!!

We also want to give another huge thank you to Joe Lanteri and the NYCDA College Scholarship Foundation for helping prepare Alexis and give her options going into her senior year!

We are beyond excited to congratulate our second senior commitment, Ava Buckhalt, on her commitment to the prestigious USC Glorya Kaufman School of Dance! This is her dream school! USC is recognized as one of the most selective dance programs in the country (only taking 24 dancers a year)! We feel incredibly lucky to have had Ava and her family with us for so many years. As anyone at TPDA will tell you, the Buckhalt family is kind, fun, involved, and helpful. Ava ✨✨✨ we are endlessly proud of you and all you’ve accomplished. USC Kaufman is so lucky to have you and we know you are going to do amazing things. 🥹
