Scarlett Anastasia's Dance Journey

I've had the privilege of taking Scarlett Anastasia's contemporary class the past couple months, and WOW. It was a challenge! Her combos are usually over a minute long and full of acrobatic moves and floorwork. But I'm so, so grateful she reached out to me because if she hadn't encouraged me to come, I never would have thought I could do it. She believed in me from the beginning and took time to teach me crazy stuff I had never done before, and I've grown so much because of it! So I'm very happy to share this interview of her journey from dancing in a small town in Illinois to moving to LA to train and teach here. Scarlett visited LA when she was 12, training at the original Millennium as well as Edge, and she knew from that point on that she wanted to move here to be a professional dancer. But she had some unexpected setbacks come up! Watch or listen to her episode to learn how she persevered and never lost sight of her dance dream.
