Community
Kris is presently teaching along the southern region from Baton Rouge To Ocean Springs for young students who wish to advanced their skills as a professional dancer
A Director Reflection
Dance programs reflect from the director’s background. Kris Cangelosi professional resume reflects all the above for over 50 years.
Professional Dance Company
Live Stage Dance Performance is the career goal for serious young dancers through pre-professional dancers. There is no award or medal. The reward is you are now physically producing what your dance training years have given to you, to an unknown audience. The importance of performing live for others at an early age through your years of training is to gratify the audience by offering entertainment for them. The team is replaced with employment and most of the spectators do not know you. Entertaining in your genre in live time makes the professional dancer produce to keep employed.
