Veronica and Kendrys practicing a part from their Pas De Deux one last time before our Spring performance. We adore these moments of collaboration, passion, and mutual support. #diw #dmvdancers #diwfamily #leadership ✨

Teaching the art of discipline is no easy task. But the younger you are, the easier it gets down the road. We are so proud of this little dancer and how far she has come. ✨
