SENIOR SPOTLIGHT ⭐ Daisy has been part of ROOTS for the past four years, and this fall she’s heading to the MTSU Honors College to study Nursing! Some of her favorite memories are spending time with her team during recital weekend and grabbing lunch between shows. When asked what her time at ROOTS has meant to her, Daisy shared:
“After moving to Tennessee from California, I had to find my home studio. After a few tries, I came across ROOTS and decided to try a class here. Little did I know that this time, I had found my home. I can’t believe that my dancing years are coming to a close. After competing for the final time with conflicting emotions, it’s bittersweet to let go and start a new chapter, but I won’t be far. ROOTS and dance will always have a place in my heart, and I am so blessed to have danced with y’all.”
Daisy, we’re so grateful for your heart, your talent, and the way you’ve poured into this community. We’re excited to see all that’s ahead for you! 🌟

SENIOR SPOTLIGHT ⭐ Presley has been an important part of our community, bringing passion, resilience, and heart to everything she does. When asked what her time at ROOTS has meant to her, she shared:
“After moving across the country, I assumed that I wouldn’t be able to connect with people or have the same passion that I did back at my old studio. However, coming to ROOTS helped me appreciate the art of dance even more. I am so thankful to all the mentors for helping me become the person I am today. Alongside dance, they teach us how to be real people and help guide us into the real world. I am forever grateful that there are people out there like them who can help shape the way little kids grow up.”

ROOTS gave me back what I lost and words can’t express how much gratitude I feel for everyone here.”
