Navi Strong
On Friday, March 28 2025, one of our little dancers, Navi Noelle Zah, went home to Jesus. At five years old, Navi was a shining light to everyone who knew her. She was kind to her classmates, always gave 100%, and had a true gift for dance. In my 37 years of teaching, she was one of the most promising little artists I have ever had the privilege of instructing. She was truly blessed with a spirit of dance.
In her honor and memory, we are establishing the TLC Navi Strong Dance Scholarship.
