November Happenings, 2023!

We enjoyed a wonderful November at DBSD!


  • Back in 2020 our dancers started demoing for the Alixa Flexibility program. Since then, McKenna and Kate have been demoing for courses for teachers all over the world, posed for the module handbooks and worked with Alixa on a regular basis. This fall they worked with her to become certified as teachers in modules 1-5 and we are so proud of them for all their hard work and commitment to the program! Our dancers benefit so much from having them as teachers and assistants in class because of their deep understanding of the work.





  • The MHS Marching Knights took 2nd place at the State Championship this November, and the Dance Line won 1st Place Color Guard! Congratulations to the entire band, and special congratulations to these seven Dance Line Seniors: McKenna Dunn, Allison Beck, Bailey Hardison, Kate Hartinger, Isabella Thompson, Megan Homan, and Emily Smalt!

  • Congratulations to Leah Gordon and Sophie McKenzie for being recognized for Excellence in Jazz, Brynn Munger for being recognized for Excellence in Musical Theatre, and Grace Elwood for earning a scholarship for next year's convention!  Further congratulations to all of our DBSD dancers in attendance!





  • The dancers were so excited to have the opportunity to take class with Emma Kufta, Hannah Middlekauff, Keller Knight, and Jordan Wanuck during our Fall Break!  They taught workshop classes during our Shop Small Saturday event, and we had a great turn-out!

  • Congratulations to our 2023 MADM Open Scholarship Winners!  Madelyn Kiska was awarded the Senior Over-all Second Runner-up Award, Grace Elwood was awarded the Senior Jazz Award, Brynn Munger was awarded the Senior First Runner Up Award, and Leah Gordon was awarded the Junior Modern Award. Congratulations to these four dancers and all of our DBSD dancers who took classes and participated in scholarships!
