The Dance Company

Today is the last day of our Summer Session!
We have had a blast with your dancers this summer.

As a reminder performing company dancers will have choreography for the next few weeks.

We are exciting to everyone back for the fall session on August 31, 2026.

Our 2026 concert, Poetry In Motion, was a beautiful reminder of what can be accomplished through dedication, teamwork, and a shared love of dance.

Thank you to our incredible dancers for your commitment and passion, our talented staff for your leadership and countless hours of preparation, our amazing volunteers for everything you did behind the scenes, and our supportive dance families for your encouragement every step of the way. Your contributions made this production possible.

We are so proud of what we created together and grateful for everyone who played a part in making our concert such a memorable experience. 🤍

And last but not least our final graduating senior is .g.hatch

Marlee has been dancing since she was learning how to walk and talk, and has loved it ever since. She says TDC has not only made her a better dancer, but a better person and she will forever be grateful for that. She has made some of her best friends and amazing connections along the way. One of her favorite memories is the trip to New York she took with her team and the dance classes they attended. Going forward, Marlee hopes to do pre-med and move to California! She is very grateful to all of her teachers, but especially her amazing mom who has made all of her hopes and dreams a reality.

Next up we have

Charlotte was born to dance. From as long as we can remember, she was dancing, twirling, and skipping to a beat. Growing up watching her 2 brothers compete in sports, Charlotte was naturally drawn to being apart of a team. We watched her character shape over the years, loving and cheering her teammates on through wins and defeats. TDC has provided her a home away from home, by dance teachers and advocates who loved and nurtured her through impressionable years. Instilling a deep confidence in herself and abilities, and what she has to offer, on and off the dance floor. From Miss Lauri’s 3 year old ballet class, to Heather’s solos, she felt valued. Dancing every style you can think of, and passionately diving into the opposites of contemporary and hip-hop. TDC not only developed her love for dance movement and technique, but also created a love for teaching, and creating choreography. Some of her favorite memories are working on solos with her favorite teachers, competing with her best friends on the dance floor, and her favorite trips to NYC, where she got to feel like a professional dancer for a few days. TDC will always hold a special place in Charlotte’s heart. With the end of her senior year insight, Charlotte is excited to go study at BYU with her brothers, and looks forward to serving an LDS mission.
