On June 1, 1997, The Premier Ballet Company of St. Augustine Academy of Performing Arts performed a ballet ensemble to the music of the Spanish classical “Bolero.” The ballet was performed at Sebastian Middle School Auditorium in the “Ports of Call” show. She was a member of the Theater Street Express choir and they performed songs of America.
In July 17, 1997, Crystal and two of her company dancers did a trio ballet performance at the I Love Dance International Championships in Orlando Florida and won First Place for the 15-17 year old division. Crystal just turned 13 and would be entering the 8th grade in the fall. Her talent excelled for her age. It was an outstanding accomplishment considering she was competing against older teenagers (15 to 17) who had more years of dance training then her. She continued dancing until September 1999, and then she moved to Colorado Springs to live with her older sister, Stephanie and attend school in Colorado.
