This is so corny and cliche of a dancer but here goes:

This is to all the friends and pretty much family I have made through my dancing years:

After being through so much together it's devastating to actually come to the reality that we are in fact going our seperate ways. We've become a family of unique young girls all brought together by a thing we all love. I've been able to grow up and learn so much from every single one of you and I know we've all changed each others lives. I'm so happy to have met a great group of people with so much passion and love to really make each day together so special. Although we may change with time, distance, and the absence of us all, we can always look back at the days where we would gossip before class, lie all over each other, eat massive amounts of food, sit and think and listen to great music, and really be able to talk to one another without any hesitation. No matter what happens we're still in this for life. <3

Dedicated to those who eventually had to make the choice to hang up their pointe shoes.
