“
We are grateful that our daughter has had the opportunity to learn from Adison Hillstead of Ground Control! His decades of experience as a competitive clogger, performer, choreographer, and coach are incredibly impressive; but what stands out most is how he brings that experience, energy & excitement into the studio. He challenges his dancers to work hard and strive for excellence while building their confidence and passion for clogging. Ground Control has a long standing reputation for high-level training, and we are excited to have this caliber of coaching and program continue in Heber Valley. We couldn't recommend Coach Adison and Ground Control more!
