Ayala Abrams was a student of The Dance Foundation (formerly Children’s Dance Foundation) in the early 2000s. This is her story…
“If you ask my mother, I started dancing when I was a baby in Mother/baby dance classes. But my first official class was at Children’s Dance Foundation (CDF) when I was three with Mary Foshee. I danced at CDF until I was about 10 years old when it became clear to my parents that I was intensely serious about dance and I wanted to fill my schedule every day with even more of it…”
