The classes and faculty at the Dance Awards were amazing. It was a packed week with classes with Katy Spreadbury, Mandy Moore, Nick Lazzarini, Ivan Koumaev, Misha Gabriel, Peter Chu, Stacey Tookey, Jason Parsons, Lauren Adams, Mike Minery, Ray Leeper, Anthony Morigerato, Cody Green, Bobby Newberry, Teddy Forance, Sonya Tayeh, Travis Wall, Benoit Swan, Mia Micheals and Melanie Moore! It was amazing!
When convention classes were done, I was able to take evening Master Classes with Peter Chu, Contemporary with Billy Bell and a "Midnight Madness" party with Bobby, Misha and Ivan with Live DJ. There were also classes with Cody Green (Musical Theatre) and Acting and Singing Class for Dancers.
With all the amazing faculty in New York for the convention, guest classes were also offered at Broadway Dance Centre. I took classes with Misha Gabriel and Bobby Newberry! I had so much fun seeing my friend Joanna and facebook friends from Mexico!!!!

When I wasn't dancing...I had soooo much fun with Jacqueline in Times Square, at Forever 21, Magnolia Bakery and John's Pizzeria. We had a sleepover and watched the Hunger Games movie...it was the best night!!!
In Times Square, we waited to catch the new "All the Right Moves" billboard. The premiere was just three weeks away at the time! Congrats to Kyle, Teddy, Nick and Travis on their new show :)
New to the Dance Awards this year, were video highlights of each days events. Each segment was hosted by Will Loftis and he did an amazing job. You can catch me doing Bobby's combo in Day 4 the recap below starting at 1:50.
I always love attending Jump Nationals...this was my third consecutive year and it is always a fun, action-packed week of dance. Thank you to Gil, Ray, Sam, Stephanie and all the faculty for an amazing tour and Nationals event.
