Sophie Herreid, Elena Bonitati, Jaclyn Gagnon, and Charlotte Flynn have all just returned from the renowned Interlochen Arts Camp outside of Traverse City, Michigan. This audition-based camp is an intensive experience for the serious dancer.

Hunter is thrilled to once again send her students to IAC, where she was a camper (many years ago!), Guest Artist and on the faculty. According to Hunter, IAC is special because of its setting--dancers look out onto a lake as they take class and rehearse--the expert faculty, and because the schedule is such that dancers literally dance all day. In addition, to be surrounded by young musicians, actors, and artists gives the dancer insight into the other arts.

Katie Norton-Bliss, a long-time student of MPH has completed her first year in the intensive year-long program at reknowned CPYB. "Katie is developing into a beautiful Classical dancer and I am so proud of her!" Hunter encouraged Katie to make the transition from JUMP! star and esb student to this boarding situation where she can train intensively and at arguably the best training ground for Classical Ballet in the U.S. Look for Katie in Hunter's upcoming HOME ALONE 3 show!
