Remember the beautiful dancers from the ASA “Spring into Dance” photo contest? Here’s an update on the two winners who spent time in a private lesson with Shannon Holst, ASA Owner/Artistic Director, picked up some seriously wonderful dance swag from our boutique, and had a professional head shot session with Elizabeth from Pretty Mug Shots in St. Charles.

Shannon’s thoughts on Lily as a performer: “Lily is a naturally gifted dancer and performer. She exudes grace and strength in every step, can pick up choreography and corrections quickly, and tells a story with any given combination.
