Our Team
Lea Caprice - Performance Coach
Born and raised in New York City, I have always admired the competitive nature of pageantry and aspired to work in the fashion industry. My modeling career began when I was 16, which allowed me the opportunity to begin traveling and working internationally. Some of my favorite work include runway shows during New York Fashion Week, magazines such as WWD, Seventeen, Elle and a feature on the cover of The New York Post. I’ve worked for brands including Saks Fifth Ave, Macy’s, T-Mobile, Baby Phat, New York Couture, Annie S Intimates and Zales. I am also proud to have won the titles of Mrs. New Jersey International 2014 and Ms. Texas International 2019. In my spare time, I enjoy horseback riding, practicing yoga and traveling with my family. I am also an advocate for many children’s non-profit organizations, including Prevent Child Abuse America and national Children’s Advocacy Centers. With over 10 years of experience in the fashion industry, I am looking forward to helping other young women achieve their fullest potential!
Alyssa Harrington - Choreographer
I am a professional performing freelance artist, dancer, instructor, educator, judge, rehearsal director, dance adjudicator, audition facilitator, Bar Method instructor, and a very bubbly person! I am known for my unique performances, choreography, inspiration, organic performances, attention to detail, positive teaching approach, uplifting spirit, and contributions to the performing arts around the world.
I tend to draw the audience in with me. If I am going to share, it will be from within. As I state to my students… You have to dance 150% full out for the audience to be involved at a 50% capacity. You have to be so authentic that the audience has no other choice but to relate, pause, and be vulnerable enough to “feel what they need to feel” in that moment.
I am most proud of the impact I have had on my students; this is a recent discovery. The feedback from each student and visually seeing their growth in silence has been one of my greatest achievements. It takes a lot to speak about yourself and be proud of yourself. To hear or see their growth from an authentic and honest place has created the feeling of fulfillment within me.
I stand by being unique and applying many approaches when I take the stage. Simplicity, focus, drive, positivity, realistic views, length, width, vulnerability, and being a good person on and off the stage make the entire package come to light. I love the fact that I have always been different. Something is very eye-catching about my performance style. I feel that if I figured out what that exact detail was or is, I would lose sight of that special innate component that comes to the surface for others. I don’t focus on what makes me different from other people. I try to see how I can impact their life differently leaving them feeling fulfilled.
