Shelby Williams Ballet | Pointe | Lyrical

Shelby has been training in dance ever since she was three years old. Throughout high school she danced with Chattanooga Dance Theater as well as the  Center for Creative Arts. As a featured dancer, she was able to perform many soloist roles including Myrtha, Dew Drop Fairy, Arabian, Ballerina Doll, Wendy, and more. Shelby has also attended several summer intensives with Chattanooga Dance Theater, Governor's school for the Arts on a full scholarship, and American Ballet Theatre. Shelby is currently a dance and exercise science major at Middle Tennessee State University, where she is also a member of the MTSU Dance Company. Her involvement with MTSU allowed her to travel with select  company members to the American College Dance Association conference. Shelby is no stranger to Cannon Arts Dance Studio, where she has brought her teaching experience from Chattanooga Dance Theater and Journeys first as a substitute teacher, and then as an integral part of Senior Dance camp. We first met Shelby when she impressed us with her performance in the Murfreesboro Sinfonietta’s version of the Nutcracker and now  Cannon Arts Dance  is proud to  welcome her as our upper level ballet & pointe teacher.
