CHeryl Cutlip
Director and Choreographer
"I grew up in a small North Carolina town and, through hard work and the support of incredible mentors, fulfilled my dream of becoming a Radio City Rockette. Today, I'm passionate about giving back by investing in the next generation of dancers. Now in its 10th season, The Carolina Snowbelles provides local dancers with world-class precision training, performance opportunities, and the skills to succeed both on and off the stage."
