ZHORA STICKEL

Zhora is a middle school student who dances at The Next Jennaration in Lansing, NY (also known as TNJ). She began her training in 2014 and has been dancing for 9 years. She is dedicated to her practice, dancing for 15 hours a week. Zhora has studied and competed in Jazz, Lyrical, Contemporary, Tap, Hip-Hop, and Ballet. She loves the energy in Contemporary, the grace and strength of Ballet, and the emotion and movement in Lyrical.

 

Zhora has performed at competitions regionally and nationally including Starpower, Imagine, Believe, Edge, Beyond The Stars, and the World Dance Championship. As a soloist, she has earned numerous awards including  Champion and Title runner-up at Starpower, Niagra Falls in 2021. With her team, she has earned many National and World Champion Titles.
