GET TO THE POINTE starts with native Texan, Cassidy Cocke, who proves that in difficult times a positive attitude makes all the difference!  2020 has changed the way dancers train, live, and create; and she allowed herself to grow through this time!  Cassidy Cocke inspires with news of signing her first professional ballet contract with Los Angeles Ballet after Covid-19 cut her Professional Division final year short at Pacific Northwest Ballet.  Fueled with empathy for her fellow artists, Cassidy and her family created "A LOVE LETTER TO ARTIST", through www.loveartgoods.com where 100% of the proceeds go to artists in need!  You will be inspired by the calming presence of this beautiful artist!
