- “I started with the I.R.D.T. when I was 6 years old. Throughout my journey with the I.R.D.T., it has made me grow as an individual, and as a dancer. I have learnt so much being with I.R.C.T.C, not just about dance, but about the outside world.“
Jazlyn Nelson
- “When participating in class, Mr. Hankey doesn’t just teach you how to dance. He teaches us lessons that we could use both in the dance studio, and in the real world. We always tell stories through our dances.“
