Rochelle was the inspiration for the existence of Ballet Ovations. She had an extreme desire, even at the age of 2 years old, to be dancing. She hardly ever walked, she mostly danced. Not only did she always dance, she was also choreographing her dances. At the age of 8 years old, she was chosen to dance her self-choreographed solo to the music of Carmen with the Phoenix Symphony. Her solo was 8 minutes long, and she performed it at four different concerts.
In 2005 we realized that her natural creativity could be taught to other children. Children love to watch children, and they especially love to dance along with Rochelle and play dress-up, using their imagination and creativity.
Rochelle also performs with a pre-professional ballet company, Ballet Etudes. Some of her previous roles have been Gingerette, Party Girl, Bon-Bon, Lady in Waiting, and Garland Dancer in Nutcracker. Rochelle has performed as the Sprite, the Bird, Ballroom Corp, and a Wedding Guest in Cinderella and a Lost Boy in Peter Pan. She also danced in Allegretto with the Metropolitan Youth Symphony, as a Comet in Orchestral Star Wars with the Phoenix Symphony, and Farandole in Celebration of Dance.
Besides her passion for dance, Rochelle also loves to play the piano and go to Disneyland. Her favorite color is lime green. She hopes to someday have her own ballet studio where she can pass on her love for ballet to other young dancers
