FROM THEIR PERSPECTIVE In the Spotlight


I just wanted to give you an update from Interlochen.  I am really enjoying my time here... I was really happy to receive one of the 8 solos. I am in a large tap number as well as the core group of jazz dancers. The dancing is rather challenging but I am keeping up thanks to all of my great PAA training!
Thanks again for all of the ways that you have helped and supported me!

- Jana, 14, ballet & tap student

Thank you so much for a wonderful semester with ballet and the wonderful recital tonight.  I thought it couldn't have been more perfect and I felt secure with your check-in/check-out system that my daughter was safe!  Thank you for providing this program.  It's been exciting to watch Katie grow with confidence each week and try new things!
