"Shelby Kaufman doesn't just light up a room with her smile, she lights up a room with her feet! Her tapping is not only musical but magic. She's that dance instructor everyone should get to experience."

"Shelby's choreography is fabulous, and she's a triple threat in the theatre. She is a thinker and she can write. She can write her own plays, her own musicals, her own everything. She's a wonderful storyteller, and I'm sure she's gonna write a whole bunch of stuff that's gonna merit as well as her dancing."
