"My 3 years of being here has been a growth for me not only in my dance technique but also as a person. It’s created lots of avenues in a professional career in dance, not only teaching but also to be able to perform professionally, specifically with a company called You Move. I’ve been able to then extend that experience of dancing professionally to be able to teach younger kids to aspire and live for the dream of dance. I’ve been lucky to cherish lots of new friendships from my 3 years of being at Wesley and the teachers have been great mentors and people to look up to. My 3 years here has been a memory that I’ll never forget."
