I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and first started dancing in my best friend’s kitchen when I was 3. She and I would put on 10 pairs of socks each so we could trade off trying on her mom's pointe shoes (her mom, Susan Tripaldi, was my first teacher). I continued learning tap, ballet and jazz when my parents enrolled me at the California Academy of Performing Arts in Moraga, CA, when I was 9. By then I was totally hooked on dancing and performing. It was a whirlwind into San Francisco Ballet School before I moved to NYC. (I was one of eight girls chosen by Baryshnikov to study fulltime at American Ballet Theater's School of Classical Ballet!) At 16, I auditioned for San Francisco Ballet and got a contract. After five fab years there dancing with amazing people, I joined American Ballet Theatre where I danced with more amazing people! Now, I love working at Dance Spirit! Abby, Kat and Lauren are zany, smart and savvy, and we have so much fun putting together the magazine for you (the best readers ever!) each month. Five Fun Facts About Kate: (E-mail me at klydon@dancemedia.com to tell me about yourself!)
- I held the 6-and-under swimming record in Lafayette, CA, for freestyle.
- I broke my arm when I was 3 falling off the back of a couch and had a black eye at the same time.
- I performed Apollo with Julie Kent, Susan Jaffe and Jose Manuel Carreño. (MOG!)
- I've only had a short haircut once in my life—it was boy-short and blond for about six months.
- My family and I are Broadway nerds. During holidays when we're all together, we've been known to blast Broadway show tune after show tune, singing and dancing our hearts out.

I started dancing when I was 3, and I haven’t stopped yet! Growing up in Maryville, TN, I took ballet, tap, jazz and modern at Van Metre School of Dance and performed with the Appalachian Ballet Company—doing plenty of Nutcrackers and attending the Southeast Regional Ballet Association festival each year in middle and high school. I double-majored in dance and English lit at Goucher College in Baltimore, MD, where I performed in works by modern guest artists Miguel Gutierrez, Roger C. Jeffrey, Amy Marshall and Kevin Iega Jeff, and even got to have my choreography presented at the American College Dance Festival! These days, I'm still dancing around NYC—I've recently worked with choreographers Jana Hicks, Isabel Gotzkowsky and Alden LaPaglia, and if you stop by Dance New Amsterdam on a weeknight or a Saturday, you might even run into me in class. Five Fun Facts About Kat:
- My celeb crush: Orlando Bloom.
- I’m a total cat person—but the weirdest pet I ever had was a mallard duck!
- I have a weakness for sci-fi TV and movies—even the really cheesy stuff.
- I’m always reading, especially on the subway. I'm an expert at balancing even the heaviest books (hello, Harry Potter) so I can still read when it's super-crowded!
- I’m a total chocoholic.

I saw my first dance performance when I was 4—the Paul Taylor Dance Company at Jacob's Pillow—and I was hooked! At 5, my mom enrolled me in ballet (which I was too impatient for), then in gymnastics (which my dad thought was too dangerous), before settling on Rhythmic Gymnastics, which I absolutely adored. I did that uber-competitively for six years (the clubs were my favorite apparatus). In high school I took a bit of a breather from dance and threw myself into theater, but in college (at Oberlin, in Ohio), I fell in love with modern dance and decided to try to make it as a dancer in NYC upon graduation. I moved here seven years ago and performed with a slew of amazing people—Tamar Rogoff Performance Projects, Loco 7, Sara Pearson/Patrik Widrig & CO. I got to travel around the Northeast U.S. and to Poland, England and Italy to perform. It was a blast! I'm also a certified yoga teacher. Now I happily bring you all the dance news from around the country and the world. Five Fun Facts About Abby:
- I grew up in Montreal, so I'm Canadian (and bilingual!).
- I’m an environmental freak—don't even try not recycling around me!
- My grandmother was a modern dancer in NYC in the 1930s.
- I love tofutti cuties.
- My walls are painted in blue, yellow and purple splotches because I couldn't decide what color to paint them!
Lauren Levinson, Style Editor
When I was 2 I asked my mom if I could take dance classes in New York City. She told me that if I stopped wearing diapers, I could sign up for ballet class. That was all it took--I was forever potty-trained and forever a dancer. I moved to Westchester, NY, at age five and continued to take jazz, ballet, tap, and hip-hop dance classes. I was the captain of my high school's varsity dance team both junior and senior year. I performed in a total of seven high school musicals as a primary dancer (my favorite memories were singing and dancing " like to be in America"as Anita in "West Side Story" and playing Gladys in "The Pajama Game"). During my college years at Syracuse University, I danced in and choreographed a hip-hop piece for a performance put on by the student-run organization, Danceworks. But this dancer is also a fashionista! Before coming to Dance Spirit, I interned in the fashion departments at New York, Jane, and Elle and also at Elite Model Management. I love to spot trends both on the streets and in the studios. Five Fun Facts About Lauren:
- My friends call me "Lev," which is an abbreviation of my last name; but it’s gotten to the point where so many people use my nickname that a college friend asked me, "What’s your last name Lev?"
- Don’t leave me stranded on a deserted island without these 3 things: a morning cup of coffee (preferably a grande soy misto from Starbucks), Palmer's cocoa butter lip balm and Orbit sugar free sweet mint gum.
- I love anything vintage—especially bags (they tend to be cheaper and more unique).
- I was a DJ for a month during my senior year of college; then I became "DJ Lev."
- My guilty pleasure is Gossip Girls, both the book series and the television show.

My mom signed me up for my first dance class when I was four and I was instantly addicted. I danced everywhere, leaping through the aisles at the grocery store (come on, who hasn’t done that?) and making homemade dance videos with my best friend in my basement. Eventually I started competing at Concord Dance Academy in Concord, NH, spending every winter weekend competing in tap, jazz, musical theater, open and lyrical. I spent almost 30 hours a week in the studio and I never got sick of it. I thrived on competition for eight years until I went to college as a journalism major at Quinnipiac University, where I was also the captain of the university's Kickline team. We won first place in the college division at the Scholastic Kickline Championships and now, with a massive trophy and a diploma under my belt, here I am, keeping the Dance Spirit website, MySpace page, Facebook group and newsletters up-to-date for you! Five Fun Facts About Alison:
- I am petrified of things in costume. The only thing that scares me more than a mascot is a snake. Also, hairless cats.
- I’d rather eat ice cream any time of day than a real meal (Moose Tracks is my fave!).
- My ultimate guilty pleasure is curling up on a couch in sweatpants and watching Grey’s Anatomy on DVD (or an America’s Next Top Model marathon).
- I really want a pug or puggle puppy. That will make my life complete.
- I lived in Australia for four months during my junior year of college. My advice to you: go there! It will change your life.
