Dance has always been a passion and an essential part of Michelle Arotsky’s life. Michelle began her dance training and artistic journey here at Jazz Unlimited at the age of three. After graduating from the Ensemble in 2015, her love for the arts and performing led her to attend Syracuse University and graduate with a BFA in Musical Theatre. Upon graduating, Michelle’s degree solidified that dance and theatre are an extension of who she is as a person, performer and storyteller. Although Michelle is a Jersey girl at heart, she moved to the Big Apple with big dreams and a passion for the arts. Currently, Michelle is a part of the 1st National Tour of The Cher Show! A member of the Ensemble, and also the Dance Captain for this fierce and talented cast, Michelle is honored to tell the story of this legendary artist.
While pursuing a career as a performer, Michelle is always excited to come back to her ‘second home’, the place that helped shape who she is today. She hopes to inspire and pass down her profound love of dancing and performing to her students, as she comes full circle at JU from student to teacher. Congratulations to all on an amazing year! JU, you know!
