"Being 21 and graduating with my masters was pretty darn cool," said Perrin.

Dance is a form of therapy. Whatever we go through on life, dance can help people through rough times, she said.

Perrin had been a guest teacher and choreographer at national conventions such as American College Dance Festival. She says the first time she taught was overwhelming. It was class of over 300 dancers from different states.
