- High Release Dance is a modern dance collaborative created in 1994 by a group of San Francisco Bay Area modern dancers. Their goal was to realize their artistic vision while still having time for families, careers and other pursuits. High Release has no director; rather, each member contributes her or his unique talents to the company.
- This company features some of Lisa Burnett's long time students (Lisa Burnett was our Modern teacher for many years). We hope you can attend this wonderful dance concert.

- Help us welcome the incredibly popular Dance Podcast: The Ballet Help Desk. The co-founders, Jenny and Brett, will be offering their first LIVE talk session. The Ballet Help Desk was born out of two moms who spent years trying to figure out how to support their dancing kids. From the competition circuit to ballet training to their professional careers, we stumbled along trying to support our kids in the best way we knew how. After several years on this path, they are ready to share what they have learned with you!
- As parents, you play a crucial role in supporting your dancer's ballet path and we know navigating the world of ballet training can be challenging. The Ballet Help Desk is here to help.
- We also invite studio directors and ballet teachers to hear & learn some very important information about the ballet world.
- This event will be hosted by Dawn Sue. You can find her at Zohar as Ballet sub teacher, carpooling as a mom of three, more carpooling as a mom of a "bunhead", and at Zohar taking ballet classes.
