The mission of Chicago Contemporary Dance Theatre is to raise the standards of dance in the city of Chicago. They are also very passionate about helping those who can really afford dance lessons. So for instance they will help pay for students whose parents are really struggling or they will receive a discount. For the Cook County Hospital there mission is to help people stay alive and keep them healthy. I am contributing to the dance studios mission because since I am a trained dancer I feel like I can really push the students to their full abilities. In the hospital I helped create skins for the medical students so they can practice on them to soon be able to work with real people.  I have also picked up basic skill like CPR and how to stop someone from bleeding out. My biggest take always from the dance studio was being able to take professional classes with adults who are way past my skill level. At the hospital I really enjoyed being able to learn simple skills like CPR just in case their is an incident. These PIE experiences helped me see that I want to be a dancer and some kind of doctor.
