Larissa joined Paradosi Ballet Company in the Fall of 2011 as the ministries first Trainee. During her early years with the ministry she was taken under the wing of the ministries founder, Tennille Carver, who mentored and encouraged her growth as an artist, a leader, and in her spiritual walk.  Over the years Larissa's passion for the Lord and using dance in ministry has only continued to grow.  Even through difficult seasons, injuries, and heartache God continued to develop Larissa as a leader and used her to serve in various capacities within the ministry first as the Trainee Rehearsal Director, then Discipleship Director, and for a season as the Trainee Director.  

In the Fall of 2018, the board appointed Larissa as the ministries Director where she continues to pour into the lives of those in her care.  Larissa's heart in serving as the Director is to draw out the gifts and talents of the members of the ministry so that they may grow those gifts and use them for the glory of God in order that they may reach more for Him!  

Tabitha joined Paradosi in the Fall of 2011 and has played a key role in the ongoing operation of the ministry ever since.  During Tabi's time with the ministry she has put on many hats from serving as our School Principal, Trainee Director, one of our key choreographers, and now as our Ballet Mistress. Tabi has poured countless hours into the ministry, our trainees, and students helping them to develop the skills necessary to become beautiful artist while nurturing their relationships with the Lord. Tabi is a blessing to us all and we could not be where we are as a ministry without her passion and dedication to what we are called to do for the Christ!
