Stephanie Nielson was born, raised, and married in Provo, UT. She is a popular blogger and author of “nieniedialogues.com.” From 2005 to 2008, her blog steadily grew in popularity and readership. Her blog entries are a natural portrayal of life as a wife, mother, Latter-day Saint, daughter, sister, citizen, etc. In the summer of 2008 she and her husband Christian were involved in a serious airplane accident. A close friend perished from his injuries and Christian and Stephanie survived the crash with burns covering arms, legs, face, and hands. She has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show, The Today Show with Matt Lauer, and the Glenn Beck Program. In these interviews she explains why she believes she beat the odds of surviving their tragic accident and what life is like with her new appearance and physical limitations. Although reconstructive surgery is an ongoing requirement for Stephanie she maintains a joyful attitude for life as it was meant to be and living the roles she loves.

The Ballroom Dance Company of Brigham Young University has known victory and acclaim throughout the world since its formation in 1971. The Utah-based team is the current US and British National Champion in both modern formation and Latin formation dance. The team has won competitions and astounded audiences worldwide with a variety of showpieces renowned for precision, beauty, and skill. Now the BYU Ballroom Dance Company will bring its world champion showcase Capture the Magic to Three Stages at Folsom Lake College on October 14, 2011 at 7:30 PM. Open seating for $30 each. Reserved seating with purchase of 10 or more tickets.
Capture the Magic treats audiences to a spectacular variety of dances, including gliding waltzes reminiscent of a royal ball, playful swing dances hearkening back to a 1950s sock hop, and dramatic, high-energy Latin dance. A special black-light number and the team’s competition medleys give additional appeal to the showcase. The dancers engage the audience with pieces that flow between elegant forms and fast-paced rhythms accompanied with amazing, colorful costumes and dramatic choreography.
The dance company will spend the 2010 – 2011 season preparing for a tour to Thailand and Vietnam. The company is an audience favorite in Thailand where they have performed for sell-out crowds several times in years past. The Ballroom Dance Company looks forward to their premier tour through Vietnam where they will perform, serve, and reach out to the community in Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi.
Whether performing in the United States or abroad, the group leaves a distinct impression of professionalism. After the group’s performance in St. Petersburg, Dr. Alex Zapesotski said, “As president of the St. Petersburg Humanities University, I have traveled around the world—to London, Tokyo, Paris—and have never seen a production of your high artistic standard and spirit.”
Ballroom Dance Company has recently traveled to England, Hong Kong, and China. The company performed in the Cultural Olympiad of the 2008 Olympic Games. The company has traveled to over 30 countries, even returning several times to many, to showcase their talent, help communities, and build unity throughout the world.
Lee and Linda Wakefield, the artistic directors of the Ballroom Dance Company, both hold memberships in the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance and have degrees in Standard and Latin dancing. The husband-and-wife pair has inspired a 30-year pursuit of excellence in the company.
The Ballroom Dance Company originates in the Department of Dance of the College of Fine Arts and Communications at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. BYU is one of the nation’s largest private universities with an enrollment of more than 30,000 full-time students from throughout the United States and 110 foreign countries.

As the sponsor of the Management Society, the Marriott School of Management provides leadership and program support through the executive director and steering committee, composed of seasoned Management Society members and business professionals. Together they assist in the training and development of chapter officers; the preparation and presentation of special programs and conferences; and establishment and development of new chapters. Individual chapters are led by an elected president and an executive committee. Chapters are independent from the school and direct their own programs. This ensures that each chapter fulfills the vision of the society but remains autonomous.
