Seeing your students grow up and become young adults is bittersweet. It’s hard to believe that they are graduating and going off on their own, but you’re also so happy and proud of them. I was Izzy’s first dance teacher and now she is a senior and graduating high school. She has become a beautiful young lady and she’s so talented. I love watching her dance.

I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do. Isn’t Izzy a model? I love that she has a tattoo that says “Vienna”. I found out that she is Billy Joel fan and Vienna is her favorite song. It’s also the song for her solo this year. I love that! Billy Joel is timeless!

Congratulations Izzy! Best wishes for all the future holds and I hope you keep dancing!

You got your passion, you got your pride
But don’t you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don’t imagine they’ll all come true (Oooh)
When will you realize… Vienna waits for you? ~Vienna by Billy Joel
