TESTIMONIALS

  • "Cat Beal would be an asset to any group and a pleasure to work with. She is positive, focused, and dedicated... an independent thinker who is excellent in working on her own but takes new directions well to make quick adjustments. Cat understands how to expressively use her body in space. She demonstrates a clean sense of timing, in a range of movement styles."

    — Cherie Bower

    (The Agnes de Mille Heritage Dance Theatre, Brigadoon - 1980 original cast)

  • "Cat is energetic, dedicated, fun, full of desire to succeed, and always happy. A lovely girl inside and out!
