Happy Holidays From Your Friends at the PULSE!!!

We had a great time in Dallas! The event was a huge success and we had a BLAST in the Lonestar State!
Check out our Web site for scholarship winners, music lists and pics from our event! (www.ThePULSEOnTour.com) The choreographers were blown away with the amount of talent they saw in Texas, and during the Q & A on Sunday, they even asked one of the showcase performence groups to do an impromptu encore performance-- right there on the spot! SO many surprises in Dallas, and we're looking forward to going back next year!
Guess what?!?! Tomorrow (Wednesday, December 17), registration opens for The PULSE Summer NYC & LA and Teacher Workshop!!! Register early and get the best rate. Space is limited! :)

Have a safe and happy holiday season.
P.S. Let us know what you've been up to! If you have any fun pictures or videos from the PULSE events that you want to share, send them to April@ThePulseOnTour.com, and you could see your pics posted on the blog!

Below is a pic from the encore performance of "Family" performed by Dance Industry

The PULSE Summer NYC Flashback!!!

For those of you who attended, you'll remember this opening number from our Final Night Gala. For those of you who didn't attend, ENJOY! Ashlie Wells choreographed this number for our top soloists and they did the whole thing in just a few rehearsals! The number turned out to be awesome!

Highlight from Cris Judd's class:

Cris taught the "Dangerous" combination that was performed all over the world while he was touring as a dancer with Michael Jackson!!!
We were all so amped to see and learn the choreography. Cris said it changed his life and we were so happy he shared it with us-
If you were in Chicago, we hope you had a great time!
Thanks for coming through Chi-town!!!
