“Cheryl has made an indelible imprint on dance training in California, Texas, and New York City. She is a well respected educator and dance maker. She has spearheaded innovative programming and initiatives at several institutions that I have had the pleasure of guest teaching at. Cheryl's students have gone on to dance at top companies all over the world and rank as some of the most prolific makers and movers of our time. She demands excellence and rigor from her students and exposes them to top professionals from all over the world. Her own pedagogies have allowed dancers of all backgrounds to become their best. I have no doubt that Cheryl will continue to make an impact on training young dancers for years to come.”
