Ms. Libby’s dance training started in Alaska with Royal Academy of Dance instruction in ballet and several amazing teachers. She soon found herself receiving numerous Merit Scholarships around the country to top-notch dance schools for ballet, modern, and Jazz. When she was 12 years old, she received a ballet scholarship to a school in Wala Wala, Washington. As a teenager, she was recruited by the director of the Okland Ballet Company, and also recruited by the director of the North Carolina School of the Arts. She then received a scholarship to the National Academy of the Arts in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois where she continued her ballet, modern, and jazz training. From there, she received 2 separate scholarships to Gus Giordano’s jazz dance school. After completing her schooling there, she received a full merit scholarship to the prestigious Alvin Ailey American Dance School where she trained in Ballet, Martha Graham modern, Horton modern, and Dunham modern (from Katherine Dunham herself). She quite frequently had the opportunity to perform for the likes of the Belafonte family, Sidney Potiet, and Alvin Ailey himself. She was also invited to perform with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in numerous performances. While at the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, Ms. Libby was also fortunate enough to be able to train around the famous and incredibly talented Gregory Hines tap dancer/ movie star who would come to the studio to practice and rehearse. From there, she also trained at the Jose Limon school of modern dance, Steps on Broadway Dance School, and the Martha Graham school of modern dance (with Martha Graham herself).  

Ms. Libby’s love for the Arts eventually brought her to Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City where she worked in the tour area where tours of the Metropolitan Opera House, New York State Theater,  and Avery Fisher Hall were given.  Her job at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts afforded her the amazing opportunity to work around legends like the famous Opera singer Paveratti and the famous dancer and movie star, Mikeil Berishnikof.
