Washington College students participating in Nu Delta Alpha initiation
As members of Nu Delta Alpha, my students expand their artistic skills beyond the studio, in ways that both benefit the community and encourage others to experience the joys of dance. While doing what they love, they grow closer to other talented, dedicated dancers.
