Tess Adler is 16, proud member of TDA & Company, 10th grader at Santa Barbara High, ASB, MAD Academy, Honors Program & excited to be apart of TDA & company for 4 years now. She was Co-captain last year, Inclusion Coalition 2 years. Tess has been dancing since 8, formerly a competitive ice skater, held a leadership role as Dance Cheer Counselor at Westmont College for kids the past 3 Summers. She loves the beach, being with her friends and family of 6, who all live nearby.
Tess is looking forward to return again for competition season. She’s a positive influence in the studio, always creating more inclusivity and friendships between dancers. She says dancing is her happy place, and has brought on the confidence in leadership and interpersonal skills.
Her inspiration is her older sister Hannah, 27, a college grad/athlete, Professional Soccer Player, plays for the Women’s US Team. Tess loves her friends at Santa Barbara Dance Arts who are more like sisters now!

Avery is 12 years old and is a member of Impact and Team Dance Arts. She's honored to serve as captain of Impact this year, and is extremely excited for her first year in Company. Avery is a 7th grader at La Colina Junior High, and loves to spend her free time reading, listening to music, and hanging out with friends and family. Because one of her siblings is neurodivergent, development and mental health issues are near and dear to Avery’s heart, and she aspires to be a psychologist one day. Avery has been dancing with SBDA since she was in kindergarten, enjoying every moment -- from Disney Dance, to Teen/Tween Hip Hop, to Junior Crew -- and she's so thrilled for the next step in her journey. She’s very grateful to have found a home-away-from-home at SBDA and for the all the incredibly talented, inspiring, and supportive dancers and staff there.
