Under the guidance of Vicky Simegiatos, Despina Simegiatos, Matina Sporek, Nanette Michele, and Alexis Stefanou, she developed a strong technical foundation in multiple styles within a nurturing environment that deepened her passion for the art form. During her time at VSPAC, she earned a place in the scholarship program, performed lead roles in full-length productions, and competed as a member of the competition team where she consistently won elite awards around the tri-state area. Her training at VSPAC paved the way for her acceptance into Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School and the SUNY Purchase Dance Conservatory. She also trained with the Radio City Rockettes and the Martha Graham School, expanding her versatility and artistry. Kassidy has performed works by Tommy Tibball, Blakely White-McGuire, Gennesy Castillo, the Bill T. Jones Company, the Martha Graham Teens at Graham Company, and the Purchase Dance Company.
