Ballet Class at UC Davis
Mr. Cunningham has no idea how much his intermediate ballet class re-inspired me to keep dancing. I had danced 4 years in high school and his ballet class was the only dancing I did since my graduation in 2005. His class, his enthusiasm, his patience, and his passion for dance re-inspired me and helped me realized that dance is such an important part of my life. Since then, I've danced in local companies, attended the American College Dance Festival, danced at Sacramento State University, worked with Nicholas Leichter and his company nicholasleichterdance/NYC, and went to New York to work with Doug Varone and Doug Varone and Dancers. Mr. Cunningham was truly the one who helped me realize that dancing is my passion, and since then, I have done nothing but pursue my dream.
Thank you so much, Mr. Cunningham!
