ROOTS Academy is honored to have hosted its 11th Annual Dance Recital themed, DREAM: Bigger, Bolder, Brighter, at the breathtaking Belmont University Fischer Center. For two exhilarating days, an astounding number of participants—650 talented dancers alongside an incredible audience of over 4500 friends and family members—in four spectacular shows filled the venue.

Kyle Chowning, ROOTS Owner, said it best, “The events of this past weekend have left me utterly awestruck. The experience we shared surpassed anything I could have envisioned, and it transcended the abilities of any one of us. My team’s collective dedication and passion, the awe-inspiring beauty of The Fisher Center, and, above all, the extraordinary assembly of dancers and families at our studio all contributed to elevating this weekend to a level that words fail to capture.”

We are so proud of each of our dancers, the mentors and staff that brought this event to life, and the family and friends that showed up to celebrate! We are closing out our best ROOTS Dance season yet and look forward to kicking off 2023-24 Dance season in August. We hope you will join us!

Below are some of our favorite moments from this year’s recital DREAM: Bigger, Bolder, Brighter.
