DESCRIPTION
TRANSCRIPT
I can’t believe another dance year is over! It seems like we just got started, and now it’s recital time again. I guess time truly does fly when you’re having fun. I am blessed to be able to work at a job I love. Where else can you stamp your feet, jump up and down then fly around the room like a butterfly without the world looking at you like you’re crazy? (Well most people don’t look at me like I’m crazy!) My students both challenge and inspire me. They keep me constantly on my toes. They expect my best and I expect their best in return. Dancers never stop learning. We never rest because there is always another dance or challenge waiting.
This has been a fantastic year at JCDA:
• We started a new boys program hoping for at least ten boys to audition. We had 21 boys audition and had to expand our plans for one class into two! The program has been a suc-cess and will continue on next year. It’s gratifying to see dance become an option for so many boys.
• Our dance team soared to new heights. Who hasn’t bumped into our six foot pink trophy by the desk!!
• We expanded back room creating a brand new dance space! Our staff has expanded our dance family. Miss Nicole pre-sented us with Max in January, and just this month Marisol gave birth to our newest member, Vanessa. She will make her studio debut at the recital.
Over my years as director I’ve watched students come in the door as shy 3 and 4 year olds and exit young adults on their way to experience life. Hopefully their time at JCDA will be as memorable for them as it has been for me. I can’t wait to see
who come through our door next!
Thanks for another great year,
Jeannette Pilger-Brown,
Director

Graduating Seniors
A note from Marivi:
My time here at JCDA has truly been incredible. I am so very grateful to have been brought into a wonderful community like this. First off, I would like to thank my mom for signing me up for dance lessons way back when. If it weren’t for growing up at JCDA, I would not be the same person I am today. This is the place where my passion for dance came to life, and I have absolutely no idea where I would be without it. I never thought that dance would be able to bring me this much joy in my heart. I would also like to thank all of my dance teachers. Thank you for always inspiring me and for pushing me to become even better. I know that the lessons I have learned here will always stick and will even apply to circumstances within my future. As I go off to college, I will definitely miss competing and practically dancing every day of the week. Most of all, I will miss always being around the family I have made here at JCDA. I can proudly call this place my second home. Thank you, JCDA, for opening up so many opportunities for me. I just know this isn’t goodbye. This is not the end for dance and me. Somehow and somewhere, I will always strive to keep dance in my life.
Marivi Lao
Kean University A note from Ashley: - I just wanted to give a HUGE thank you to JCDA for accepting me not only as a student, but also as apart of the family. I’ve only been apart of studio for a short amount of time and I have loved every single moment of it. Thank you to Ms. Jeannette for being so generous, kind, and giving me so many opportunities! Thank you to Ms. Naya & Mr. Chris for kicking my butt and pushing me towards becoming a better dancer. Thank you to Ms. Nicole for embracing me, helping me, and giving me advice. Thank you to Ms. Mariette, you have inspired me and helped in so many ways.
- To my Dance Team and classmates: I LOVE YOU GUYS. This year was emotional and amazing. I will never forget it. You guys are like my sisters and I am so happy to have met you. -To my classes (Hip Hop ½ & Boys) You guys have made my first year of teaching so exciting! You guys were so awesome to work with. It was amazing to see you grow and I am extremely PROUD OF YOU!
Although I go away to college in the fall (as a dance major! :), this is not the last you’ll see of me!
Love,
Ashley Alvarez

I prayed for a healthy baby, GOD delivered
I prayed for you to be happy, you make me smile when I feel like crying
I prayed for you to be free, and you are.
You are exceptionally blessed.

I love you to the moon and back, Mommy

Johnai,
It's Not Only In Heaven
That Angel's Play
Listen Closely
To What I Have
To Say
You Are My Granddaughter
Sweet As Can Be
You May Be A Little Devil
To Other's
But, You're An Angel To Me
Love , Nana
Johnai,
On the day you were born, my life was changed
completely. How could one tiny child transform my world oh, so
sweetly?
You brought back my childhood, brought out the child in me
And gave me fresh perspective
on life's priorities.
The world
became brand new again
as I saw it through your eye
and I learned to
value each new day as a gift full of surprise.
I never knew just how much love a
child would stir in me,
but in his grace the father saw
and recognized my need.
For I was given just a taste
of perfect love, it's true, when
God in all his mercy, chose to bless my life with you! I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!
Love Mommy
