Why "Legacy"
As dancers and teachers, we owe a debt to those who have gone before us in the classical tradition. There are teachers, choreographers and other dancers, all of whom have given us something. They have passed their legacy on to us. And we in turn pass it along to the next generation of dancers. One of my teachers and mentors, Mrs. Barbara Bounds Milone has given me more than she will ever know. Legacy is named in honor of her and the time and love she devoted to this art form. Thank you Ms. B!
