In early 2022, Greyson was invited to return to her alma mater, James Caldwell High School, to choreograph her high school’s spring production of Matilda, and then Grease in 2023.

🌟Teacher Spotlight: Mizuho🌟
Mizuho Sato was born in Iwate, Japan and started classical ballet at the age of three. As she performed on stage and attained years of experience winning balletic competitions, she pursued her career as a dancer and took summer school in the Royal Ballet Academy of England. Entering Sophia (Jochi) University in Tokyo brought her a strong encounter with flamenco, and she decided to shift her career. She relocated her base to the Bay area in 2018 and teaches and performs at local venues.
She debuted her own company Mizuho Sato Flamenco Company in San Francisco with a show called ¡FLAMENKING! to spread the power of healing “flamencura” to embrace the multicultural Bay Area flamenco scene, simultaneously showcasing her other talent as a painter and as a result, it was a sold-out show!
