When you join Orchesis, you are not only joining a dance company, but a group of girls for life where you will form friendships that will last well beyond your high school years. It's great seeing all the girls in the hall during passing periods, as there is always someone to brighten your day. Orchesis not only makes the school feel smaller, but also the dance community. No matter your background or studio, everyone is welcome and appreciated. From Pep Rally in the fall to Showcase spring, Orchesis dancers always love and cherish every moment spent together.

Orchesis was by far my favorite memory throughout high school. I have made friendships incomparable to any others through the company. Orchesis also opened up many opportunities for me to be able to choreograph pieces and learn to handle a lot of responsibility. An Orchesis relationship is different than any other and will always be irreplaceable.

Being on Orchesis has been one of the best parts of high school. It's so great to find people at Neuqua who have the same passion for dance as me. Being on the team has given me amazing friendships, and the chance to express myself through dance. Sharing the stage with such dedicated dancers is an experience I will never forget and high school would not be the same without it.

Orchesis has been a huge part of my life for the past 4 years. Being able to learn from various choreographers makes Orchesis very unique and gives the members of the company a great opportunity to try new styles. I have been so blessed to have able to choreograph many dances and share my love of dance with my teammates. The most rewarding part of Orchesis is our show because we get to show the school what we have been working on.
