TESTIMONIAL
"I want to take a moment to sincerely thank you, Ms. Sherry Moray, and all the summer intensive teachers and friends. J.J. had an incredible summer at ADA. The quality of your summer intensive program has been a truly life-changing experience for her dance journey, and we are beyond impressed and grateful for this opportunity.
The structured daily warmups, insightful feedback and corrections, and the background knowledge you provided on ballet history and terminology were invaluable. I was especially impressed with the Friday seminars and masterclasses you worked so hard to include. I never imagined my 11-year-old would have such amazing opportunities to learn about dance pedagogy, anatomy, stress management, injury prevention, and stage makeup! And, of course, the final highlight—the privilege of joining Mr. Moskalenko’s masterclass—was unforgettable.
You are truly nurturing and inspiring the next generation of dancers in such thoughtful and meaningful ways. Your teaching, encouragement, and kindness will always be held dearly in our hearts."
