“This season, we focused on 8 core values: discipline, belonging, respect, risk taking, strength, tenacity, patience, and fairness.
Every athlete on these teams represents those values in different ways, and tonight’s awards are about recognizing the unique heart, growth, artistry, and energy each person brought to our team this season.”

“Danica has grown so much this season. Even though she can be quiet, we’ve really seen her confidence begin to shine through.
One of the things that makes Danica special is her adaptability. Right before one of our shows, she had a major role change and handled it with so much calmness and maturity.
Danica is receiving the Go With the Flow Award.”
“River brings so much life and joy into every rehearsal and performance. She is completely herself at all times in the best possible way, and her goofy, magical personality lights up the room.
She reminds us that performing is about more than skills — it’s about bringing energy, heart, and joy into the air.
River is receiving the Joy in Motion Award.”
