Jo Ann Warren Studio is family
"I danced at Jo Ann Warren Studio from the ages of 3-18. I practically lived at the studio from the time I could walk, until high school graduation. I cannot explain how grateful I am for the experience I gained in 15 years. The dance studio, especially the people, helped shape me into who I am today. I learned so much, not only about dance, but about who I am as a person, and how to approach different situations in life. I gained a plethora of skills from my time at JAWS, but am most grateful for my ability to fully embrace myself and be confident in who I am as a dancer, and a person. I was, and continue to be, inspired by all of the teachers and other dancers at the studio, and wish that everyone could share the same mindset that I do. I danced on the competition team at JAWS for about 10 years, and learned the importance of working as a team and supporting those around you. The studio became a second home to me, filled with so many people I will forever consider family."
