A week I’ll never forget. 🤍

So grateful for the opportunity to spend the week in Phoenix with New York City Dance Alliance. Dancing alongside some of the best dancers in the country was such an incredible experience, and I’m so thankful I got to be in that room.

Getting to be part of the National Outstanding Dancer experience after earning my scholarship at regionals made this week even more special. Feeling inspired, motivated, and so thankful for every moment. ✨ And ofc a huge thanks to my amazing studio @tycdance and especially my mom and sister for always encouraging and making these things possible!! @jalynstough @robinyoung961

Day 8… the final day of the NYCDA Outstanding Dancer Experience. 🤍✨

We wrapped up an unforgettable week with workshop classes taught by @kimcraven.2, @cindyweliksalgado, @ali_dietz, and @tonytesta7fd0. Every class throughout the week pushed me to grow and reminded me why I love to dance!

I also fell in love with the Phoenix/Scottsdale area, and I couldn’t have asked for better housemates to share this incredible experience with. The laughs, late-night talks, and memories we made together are ones I’ll treasure forever. 🌵🏜️☀️

A huge thank you to all of my dance teachers @tycdance for believing in me, encouraging me, and helping make this incredible opportunity possible. I wouldn’t be here without your guidance, support, and countless hours of hard work. 🥹

Thank you, @nycda, for an experience I’ll never forget. My heart is so full, and I’m leaving with lifelong friendships, endless inspiration, and memories that will stay with me forever.

Forever grateful to be part of the Outstanding Dancer Experience. 🫶🏻🩰

Day 7 @nycda was filled with the most incredible memories. 🥰

The day began with workshop classes taught by @suzitaylor30, @joeydowlingfakhrieh , Andy Pellick, and @jasonluks . I loved every opportunity to learn from these amazing instructors throughout the week.

That evening was the Junior Closing Gala, where we had the honor of opening the show with our Outstanding Dancer mini group piece. After working on this dance all week, it was such a special moment to hear my name called during the performance as I stepped forward to dance. It was an experience I’ll never forget. 💖

This week challenged me, inspired me, and gave me memories I’ll cherish forever. I’m so grateful for this unforgettable experience and for everyone who made it so special. 🫶🏻

Day 6 at the NYCDA Outstanding Dancer Experience was another incredible day! 🤍

We took classes with @kenneth_easter, @_jamesalonzo, @gracebuckleychoreography, and Andy Pellick, and I loved every single one of them! Learning from such talented instructors is an experience I’ll never forget. 🥰

That evening, we performed “Send Me On My Way” one last time. I’m so grateful to @kylerostan for creating such a beautiful contemporary piece. It was bittersweet saying goodbye to a dance that has meant so much to us.

The night ended with the Junior Gala and an epic Glow Party! It was the perfect way to celebrate an unforgettable week filled with amazing memories, inspiring teachers, and incredible friends. 🌟

✨A dream come true! ✨

I’m beyond grateful to have attended the @nycda Outstanding Dancer Experience in Phoenix, Arizona! 🌵☀️

The first two days were filled with so much OD fun, and one of the best moments was getting back on stage with my trio. E were honored to receive a Platinum adjudication and place 10th Overall out of more than 50 Mini group performances! Thank you, @robinyoung961 for creating such a fun dance that fits our personalities so well! 🤓

What made this even more meaningful was performing it for the last time one stage with friends I’ve danced alongside for years. As we head into next season, they’ll be moving away and starting middle school sports. While I’m so excited for them, I will definitely miss them!

And how much fun was it getting to stay in a house with some of my dearest dance friends? It made the week even more special! 🫶🏻

Day 5 at @nycda Nationals kicked off our workshop classes, and I loved learning from @sjovo1, @chloearnoldtaps, @danadaners, and @desmondrich7. Every class challenged and inspired me! That evening we got to preform our Mini Small Group Disney Chicks routine! 👑🐥 I love dancing as Belle… she’s my favorite! 🌹 We received a platinum adjudication and 14th over all out of 90 mini dances. Had a little bit of pool time and then off to OD rehearsal!
