LOIS BRYAN - 2008 - 2009
Ms. Lois Bryan, who has been with us for twelve years, joined our staff four years ago. Ms. Lois has worked with all three departments – dance, gymnastics and cheerleading. She has been coaching team gymnastics, and is again teaching lyrical, jazz and hiphop this fall to company dancers. Lois took dance for thirteen years, with eight of those years being at Huff ‘n Puff. Her four years of gymnastics were taken at Huff ‘n Puff and she was on Ms. Laurel’s first competitive team, as well as the original competitive Dance Company. She had been a cheerleader since the 8th grade, was co-captain in the ninth grade, was named top all-american cheerleader in tenth grade and also cheered in the eleventh and twelfth grades. Lois was chosen after her senior year to be a member of the Universal Cheerleaders Association Staff for 2004 and traveled to five or six nearby states to help instruct cheerleading camps for high school and junior high squads. Ms. Lois attended Pulaski Tech for three years on scholarship, and is now in the Registered Nursing Program at Baptist Health School of Nursing and Allied Health, with plans to graduate in December 2009. She also works at the hospital as a Patient Care Tech ll. She will continue to teach dance, and coach gymnastics, working with Level Five, Six and Seven Gymnasts. Ms. Lois' company dancers have continued to excel in the competitions and are so enjoyable to watch. The hiphop and jazz dancers are a exuberant as the lyrical dancers are graceful.
