Here at Dancewear Center, our Ambassadors are something we love to share! We got the opportunity to speak with one of our new Ambassadors Alaina Fowler! Read on to learn more about Alaina’s dancing journey and why she decided to become a DWC Ambassador!
Alaina started dancing when she was just 2 years old and her parents enrolled her into a local dance studio’s mommy and me dance class. She shares that her parents would trade off on taking her to those classes each week. Her mother danced when she was younger so that was a big part of what sparked her to continue taking classes. Since then, Alaina has taken classes at Fidalgo Dance Works. When she was 12, she shares that she had a really big turning point in her dance career when she got her first big role as Clara in The Nutcracker. She shares that this is what made her want to take dance more seriously. Later that same year she got her first pair of pointe shoes and went to her first summer intensive at Summer Dance Lab, pushing her to continue dancing more.
Alaina shares that the summer intensive she attended is the reason that she is where she is today and gave her that kickstart to make dance a career. During the pandemic, Alaina had a teacher that was offering her privates so she could still continue dancing. She shares that if it wasn’t for that teacher and those privates she may have quit dancing altogether so she is forever grateful for that opportunity. Alaina is still continuing her training and is off to another summer intensive this summer!
When asked about why Alaina applied to be a DWC Ambassador, she shares that one of our former Ambassadors Kendall Hadley introduced her to the ambassador program. She shares that she helped her with certain social media posts and she shares that she loved it. Alaina says that she was really inspired by the amount of change and impact that DWC promotes and loves that DWC creates a safe space for dancers to be who they are. She shares that she is really excited that she applied and was accepted and is excited to see where this journey goes!
We are so excited to have Alaina as one of our new DWC Ambassadors! Be sure to check out the rest of her interview below!
