“Rise shaped me into the dancer, student, professional, and overall person I am today. From developing my technique and strengthening my creativity in the studio to instilling discipline and a strong sense of preparation into my everyday life, Rise has been foundational in grounding my passion for dance. Rise not only provided me with lifelong friendships but also offered a safe, welcoming, and encouraging space to develop as a dancer, artist, and individual.”
