Sheri "Sparkle" Williams
(Company Fitness Trainer) I’m a native Daytonian who has come to be known, among my colleagues and dance enthusiasts, as Sparkle. Currently, I am embarking upon an unprecedented 35th season with DCDC and am likewise an original member of the New York based Complexions Contemporary Ballet.
I’ve had the honor of receiving numerous awards throughout my blessed career, including the JOSIE Award, Fisk University's Excellence in Artistry Award, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Montgomery County Arts and Cultural District, and the coveted New York Dance and Performance Award (the Bessie) to name a few. All to which I attribute the nurturing bestowed upon me by many dance educators and creators most of all company founder, Jeraldyne Blunden. As a nationally certified fitness professional I serve as company Fitness Trainer charged with challenging the dancers to improve cardiovascular, strength, plyometric, and overall aesthetic prowess.
Inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society with a 4.0 GPA working toward a dual major in Systems and Software Engineering, I credit any and all of my accomplishments to the exceptional discipline I’ve acquired through dance. "In my world it's all choreography."
