Dance studio owner Teri McKinney attended with cheerleading coach Zachary Hanham.
“I wish my dancers could have come,” said Ms. McKinney. “Just amazing skill; the clean lines were beautiful, the stretches are amazing and how they were choreographed together was just amazing.”
“I’m going to definitely suggest them to come back next year if they come back to Reno,” she said. “It’s incredible to see the symmetry of all of them moving together and flowing together as one.”
Harpist Marina Oster called the performance “beautiful, mesmerizing, and captivating.”
“It’s just astonishing. They are all acrobats/actors/dancers, and just beautifully unified,” Ms. Oster said. “You can tell they put a lot of attention into the detail of the choreography. It’s very detailed and very satisfying to watch for me as an artist.”
The deep training and spiritual cultivation of the performers carry into the audience.“And now I regret that I didn’t bring my 5-year-old daughter,” she added. “I think she would have done well in there, but next time!”
