FIRST THING THAT COMES TO MIND WHEN YOU SAY “CAPEZIO"
DREAMS! I've always associated the Brand of Capezio with being a professional dancer ....Capezio and Dance are synonymous in my book.
FAVORITE CAPEZIO ITEM
Soft leather split sale lace up jazz shoes. I wore a pair in "Guys and Dolls" on Broadway for the "crap shoot ballet." I still wear that pair for auditions .
BIGGEST PIECE OF ADVICE FOR OTHER DANCERS
Be generous with your energy and passion. Always tell a story through the movement and never stop loving what you do!
