"Being a part of orchesis has impacted my high school life so much. One thing I
really love about being on Orchesis is how it's not a team, it's a family.
The relationships I have made on Orchesis are for a lifetime!"

"What I love most about being part of Neuqua's Orchesis Dance Company is that I
get to share my passion for dance with others. I love how the dancers get to
choreograph dances and later showcase them to our peers, friends, and
family. Throughout my years on the company, I have made many friends who
share the same love for dance as I do. I truly consider the company my
second family."

"I have been on Orchesis for all 4 year of high school, and it has been the best
decision I've made thus far. The people I've met and the experiences I've had
have been life changing, and I honestly can't imagine what I would be like
without them. This family is something I never expected, but now I know I
couldn't live without. The girls are like sisters to me, and I feel truly blessed
I get to share my passion with them. This team is nothing like anything I've
ever experienced, and I only wish I could spend 4 more years with my ODC family."

"It's rewarding to have your peers come watch what you work so hard for all year, and what you have worked so hard for in your previous dance career. I love being part of such a strong, committed team!"
