After an extremely successful season for all, it’s time to highlight and celebrate our graduates of the Class of 2025!
Next up,
Lillian 📚

I made lasting memories that will never be forgotten, I’ve cried through my pain and anguish on the shoulders of the friends who have supported me, I’ve lived and embraced different styles of dance, I’ve made a family that ignores my flaws and insecurities and supports me for who I am.

I’m proud of how far I’ve come. How I’ve pushed myself outside my body and inhabited a new version of myself. Someone confident, inspiring, supportive, and unafraid. I’ve developed new skills, broke bad habits. I’m proud of myself for being who I am.

For all the younger dancers out there I want you to remember to be yourself, no matter what others say you should be, believe in yourself because I do. Don’t let others words impact you because you’re perfect inside and out with all your flaws, emotions, and quirks.

I want to inspire others, whether it’s through movement, or words. I’m attending CSULB in the fall as both a Dance and Creative writing major. I want to end up in a professional company and have a well written book series like my favorite authors.

Lillian, your devotion to dance is like no other, and we know the best is yet to come! We are so proud of you!

It’s officially time to meet Strong Pre-Professional Company!
Next up:

Lillian 🌿

Lillian is in 11th grade. She started out with ice skating and 8 years ago her coach told her she needed a ballet class to help with pointing her feet, and she has been dancing at Strong ever since. She learned she loves dancing especially because she gets to inspire little kids as the older girls inspired her when she first started out.
She has been Jafar in Aladdin, Glinda in Wizard of Oz, the Beast in Beauty and the Beast, and currently is Snowflake, Flower, Miss Stahlbaum, and Lead Marizpan in the Nutcracker. She is the Associate Director of the Apprentice Program at Strong Dance Studios, where she gets to manage apprentices helping out their little dancers. Lillian’s goal for the future is to become a Professional Dancer and an author.
