Meet Our Junior Dancer of The Year Haley Zimmerman!

Haley Zimmerman has been dancing since she was 2 years old.  Haley’s love of dance was apparent at a very early age.  When the activities she was involved in started conflicting with each other her mother asked what she wanted to do the most. Haley quickly answered, “I feel that I want to dance for people.”  Her family knew then that she had made the decision to take dancing seriously. 
Haley is now 10 years old and is in the 4th grade. She still loves dancing for people.  Haley truly loves thecommitment that competitive dancing requires.   If given a choice Haley would spend even more hours atthe studio.  Haley has danced competitively since she was 4. She has won numerous regional and national solo and title competitions.  Her Starstruck dance family is a blessing to her.  She says that her instructors, Jessica Morrow and Erin Lustig, and her mother have influenced her the most and keep her motivated to continue learning and growing. She excels in school and also plays on her school’s basketball team.
 Among her many ambitions, Haley’s desire to become a professional dancer is at the top of her list.  She also hopes to choreograph for other talented dancers.  Haley hopes to make a difference in someone’s life with dance. She knows how much dance means to her and she wants others to be able to experience it, too.
