 What a thrill it was for JoAnn East and JEDEC students to study with Sonya Tayeh at the March Dance Teachers Club of Boston dance convention open to certified member teachers and their students.

Congratulations to JEDEC student Lindsey Barrows, on achieving her third coveted position on the 3X Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots Cheerleader Team!!!  She was also appointed as the Dance Captain! Miss Lindsey is a 10 year student of the JoAnn East Dance Education Centers. At JEDEC, she studied Ballet, Pointe, Tap, and all styles of Jazz including Hip Hop. Lindsey is an accomplished member of JEDEC and the JoAnn East Dance Co., and Lindsey has also participated in the JoAnn East Competition and Touring Team. Lindsey has also been a performer at three of the JEDEC performances at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World-Florida. In addition, Miss Lindsey is an honors graduate of The Dance Teacher's Club of Boston's Dance Educator Training Course and has both student demonstrated and been an assistant to the JEDEC faculty and staff. It is with utmost pride and greatest pleasure that JEDEC congratulates Miss Lindsey on her many accomplishments. Out of nearly 300 hopefuls who danced, kicked, free-styled, modeled, tested, interviewed and danced some more....11 talented young women were awarded the position on the 24 member team in 2007. Lindsey again earned a position on the team for all three eligible years. Lindsey danced and modeled professionally and traveled the world for both work, and charitable events while also achieving academic excellence in college.  Congratulations Lindsey! We love you and are so very proud of you! And, though you are humble...your talents and inner beauty shines through (now for the whole world to see!), as it did when you were a little girl and as we are sure it will for a very, very long time. Keep reaching for those stars! Dream-Dance-Achieve! For more exciting alumni news please visit the "JEDEC Hall of Fame".
