Christine Tjahjadi-Lopez, M.A.
Growing up in different parts of the U.S.A., Christine's identities have always been in Christ, family and dance. As the founder of Transformation Ballet Inc., she has been called to share the love of Christ with children from all socioeconomic situations. Her graduate studies opened her mind to think critically about development, NGOs and indigenous populations. Her numerous accolades for social justice work funded community-based projects during university and propelled her to always seek sustainability. Christine believes that every talent we posses is unique and made to be used to the fullest to further the kingdom of God.

Genevieve Custer Weeks
Genevieve is the founder and CEO of Tutu School, a collection of children’s ballet schools throughout the United States.
Having danced both with the Oakland Ballet and as a freelance artist - performing principal and soloist roles throughout North America – in 2008, Genevieve started dreaming of her opening own boutique school that would celebrate the things she loved most about ballet. During a break in her performance schedule, Genevieve's husband, Andrew, finally asked, "Why wait?" and Tutu School was born.
