Miss Rebekah grew up in Del Rio and started dancing at age 5. During her senior year of high school, she went to Ballet San Angelo to expand her ballet training. While there, she attended classes that covered ballet technique from the bottom up, providing her with a strong knowledge base for teaching. After 8 months there, and many auditions for companies and schools across the country she decided to attend Steps on Broadway’s conservatory program in New York City. She spent 2 years at the conservatory training with some of the best in the industry. Such as Chet Walker, Llyod Culbreath, Kat Ponza, and so many more! In New York not only did Rebekah improve exponentially in her dance technique but she also got opportunities to learn about the business of dance. She also got the opportunity to choreograph a piece entitled Ocram Lost and get feedback from Janis Brenner, and other choreographers. Rebekah has always looked forward to a time when she could bring this quality of dance training back to her hometown for other aspiring dancers. Her hope for this school is to provide students with a thorough technique training that will more fully prepare them for a future in dance beyond Del Rio, all within a Christian worldview.
