Special congratulations goes out to Allie Harris for winning a LA Dance Magic Nationals Scholarship and even more exciting, a summer contract with Trio Talent Agency in Los Angeles, California. She received these honors when she attended the LA Dance Magic Convention in Houston this past November. This contract will allow her to learn the many aspects of becoming a real working dancer in the industry as well as make many important connections for her future! Congratulations again Allie! We are so proud of your hard work, dedication and accomplishments.
Continued congratulations go out to Allie Harris and Hayley Shannon for winning full year convention scholarships to LA Dance Magic and Jamie Fisher for winning a 2 week scholarship to the Performing Arts Center in LA. These awards were received while attending the LA Dance Magic Convention in Chicago. Allie Harris and Chelsea Cendrowski also attended the LA Dance Magic convention in Indianapolis and both made it through the entire audition process.
While attending NYC Dance Alliance in Lansing we had a great first-time experience at the competition and convention. We were awarded 3 "Outstanding Contemporary" Awards along with numerous dancers making it through the entire audition process. Special congratulations goes out to Honora Wood for receiving a Summer Rockette Experience Scholarship for this summer.
We are looking forward to our many ventures this summer. We will be at the LA Dance Magic Nationals for our 3rd year in Aneheim, CA along with our 3rd year at the LA Dance Magic Intensive in Los Angeles, CA. We will follow up those two different weeks with our annual trip to NYC to dance at Steps and Broadway Dance Center. We will post a list of dancers that attend these trips. They need a round of applause and special recognition for going above and beyond the normal weekly dance routine.
All current dance photographs in our galleries were taken by Tom Bower, Dwight Cendrowski and Jack Durham. All staff photographs were taken by Dwight Cendrowski.
My daughter, Allie, discovered her passion for dance by working with Adam and Lisa Clark. They are not only excellent teachers, but gifted dancers themselves, modeling the technique, dedication, beauty, and the joy of dance to those that blossom under their guidance.
