In my youth, Renee's training in theatre landed me jobs with the broadway cast of Merry Poppins (2008 performance, Walt Disney World Resort, televised), as well as multiple jobs with Walt Disney World Resorts and Dance the Magic USA. Her training WILL prepare you for real acting/musical theatre based work, in a fun, family friendly, safe environment." - Kyle, former student
