  • Testimonials
    Testimonials “I could not have won Miss America without Shea! With nine tap dancers heading to Las Vegas this past January, I knew I needed a competitive edge. Shea's choreography challenged me and captured my personality to a 'T.' I had so much fun in my preparation for Miss America thanks to Shea's kick-butt attitude and no-nonsense approach to making people awesome!” - Mallory Hagan, Miss America 2013 “Working with Shea was one of the most awesome and yet tiring experiences ever! Never have I had a teacher who was able to pinpoint exactly what I needed to take my routine to the next level but also relate to me on a personal level. I appreciate the time she's spent with me because I know no one else could've been so beneficial to me!” -Alicia Clifton, Miss OK and Miss America 2013 2nd Runner-Up and Preliminary Talent winner “ Shea Sullivan’s choreography makes my costumes come alive. ” -Designer Stephen Yearick “ Working with Shea before Miss Connecticut and leading up to Miss America was probably the best decision I made in all my years competing. I had always struggled with something in regards to my talent, but thanks to Shea I feel like my dancing has been brought to a new level. She has challenged me in many ways, and in the process has made me a stronger dancer, and contestant. I've never felt so excited to perform a piece. Shea helped me to keep the integrity of a classical ballet variation, and at the same time to make it even more entertaining and relatable for the Miss America stage.
