#TeamTexas AYOP 2016 - Twirling Sweet Sensations

The countdown continues! Two weeks from right now we will have all finished up our first day of competition at AYOP at Notre Dame University. So many big events on that first Tuesday, including the Beginner & Intermediate Pageants, which will be a huge deal for our next group...

The Twirling Sweet Sensations out of Schertz, TX will have three students representing the State of Texas in the Beginner & Intermediate pageants, and a total of 7 students attending Nationals. This group is lead by Director/Coach Michele Pangrac, Asst. Director/Coach Mary Ann Srulowitz, and Dance Director Lori Michelle.

A fun fact about this group is that they are one of the only Texas groups competing in team events. The Twirling Sweet Sensations will be competing in the Beginner Junior Small Dance Twirl and Halftime Dance Line events. They currently hold the State & Regional title for both team events, and we wish them a ton of luck on the floor competing on the National stage.
