VERONICA MORETTI NIEBUHR Teacher, The Studio Savannah, GA USA BIO | POSTS

Well it was quite a weekend at the Youth America Grand Prix regional in Spartanburg, SC! A who’s who of young talent. All of my kids did very well-I am so proud of them. It was very intimidating and a lot of pressure. I am really tired so here is a quick post on our results:
Alston Macgill (pre-competitive) came in Third place and was invited to the finals in NY in April!!
Shakira Bell (pre-competitive) and Angela Novelli (SR Contemporary) both finished in the top 12.
The scoring was very tight due to the unbelievable amount of talent in all categories. I am very pleased with how they all did. Justin in particular brought the audience to tears with his moving performance. He narrowly missed the top 12 by tenths of a point. They certainly learned a lot this weekend and had a great experience.
Here are a few photos:
