"It’s my first time to dance in such a big stage in front of so many people. I even haven’t danced in front of my parents. I am really proud of myself, but also I felt something more than that".
"When I was dancing, I could put my emotion into it and I felt that passion fulfilled my heart".
"Being part of the concert was a really good experience. Not only am I able to perform, I’m able to understand everything the performers of the past have experienced. Being backstage at rehearsals was a lot of fun because while we waited, we were either practicing to correct certain movements, stretching, or taking a TON of pictures of everyone at their best. I really loved actually being a part of something that mattered to a lot of people, including myself. Being a performer and not a spectator is a huge difference, but after the nervous feelings and worries of messing up on stage passed, it was more fun performing than watching others perform. After the concert, when my family and friends applauded me for doing a good job, I felt accomplished, like I satisfied everybody in every way possible. Being a part of the dance program made me realize that dance could become something I can be passionate about".
"From the words of my friends, I knew that they love that dance, they think Neuf looked wonderful"!
"I personally felt that this was the most challenging Winter Concert I've been in, not only because the stage was different, but because the dances were particularly challenging. But, I really enjoyed the challenge and feel that I've improved because of this. I'm already looking forward to the Spring Concert"!
"I have never tried to dance before, and it is the first time to dance in front of people after kindergarten. It is like a kind of chance for me to try different kind of thing. I will never regret doing this".
"Before taking this dance class, I can never imagine to dance, even my parents can't imagine me dancing..."
"At the concert I began to realize how much closer I've become to some of my peers. I've built foundations of friendships I never would have before".
