The 35 members of the group are practicing for their upcoming spring concert, April 25 and 26, at the Lawrence Arts Center. ANISSA FRITZ/KANSAN University dance group prepares for spring show ANISSA FRITZ entertain@kansan.com With eggshell-white paint, black marley floors and mirrors and bars that line the room, a dance studio at Robinson Recreational Center holds 10 members of the University Dance Company along with one instructor who guides them with direction and a watchful eye through the piece they are working on. A picture like this is not uncommon for the UDC, as it works toward its goal of having a successful spring concert. The UDC is a group of the University's finest dancers, 35 to be exact. Each dancer is expected to put in four hours of rehearsal per week for 12 to 13 weeks, and dancers are normally put in more than one piece for a concert. Second semester member Taylor Flory, a freshman from Brentwood, Calif., who is currently in two pieces for the spring dance concert elaborated on the range of styles that the company does. "It's really all over the spectrum because you'll see slow detailed pieces as well as fast high energy pieces, so it's always exciting to see the audiences reactions to the variety of styles," Flory said. Such a large group of talented individuals needs to have "It is rewarding...to be able to devote my time to something I love and hope to spend my life doing." ALEXANDRA SIERRA UDC president a fearless leader. That's where Alexandra Sierra comes in, the UDC's president. "The best part of leading the company is getting to watch the other dancers perform and grow throughout the semester. I also enjoy working with the other dancers in the business side to promote and share the work that we do as a company," Sierra said. "It is rewarding as a person to be able to devote my time to something I love and hope to spend my life doing." Passion exudes from these dancers, but anything great never comes easy. There are many challenges that these dancers face. Grace Haverty, a freshman, said being in the UDC is hard because it can be time consuming depending on how many pieces you are in. "You really have to focus on time management to get all your homework and other obligations done," Haverty said. The UDC excels at putting on great concerts and performances all year round for the University students. Through the bruised knees, sore muscles and long rehearsals, the UDC is a truly talented group of individuals whose one desire is to put on a show through the art of dance.
