Chelsea Summer's entertainment passion began when
she first entered the theatrical world of stage musicals. Beginning with a
small role as a “Newsie” in a local community show "Disney Musical
Spectacular”, Chelsea began the exciting journey into her entertainment career.
With roles in such productions as: “Hairspray”, “Tom Sawyer”, “Alice In
Wonderland”, “Les Miserables”, “Annie”, and “The King & I”, one role led to
the next, from ensemble to supporting lead, to lead roles. Soon after, her
progress moved to commercials, television and film.
The year 2012 marked her first Principle booking
in a commercial for Sprint (along with her identical twin, Brooke Star). In recent years on television, she has played
various roles on Disney’s “Ant Farm” and “Jessie”, CBS’s “Bad Teacher”, NBC’s
“Parenthood”, ABC’s “The Fosters” and “The Middle”, as well as Fox’s “New
Girl”. All the while, Chelsea continued to work hard building her skills to
compete for principal roles.
In 2013, she starred as Lauren in a short film
entitled “A Better Place”, directed by Javi Joseph, which went on to win first
place at the Caddie Short Film Festival at La Sierra University (California),
and due to the films success, Chelsea was featured in print on a major freeway
billboard in Los Angeles, CA.
This year (2014) marks Chelsea’s largest leveling
up in her profession when she guest starred as "Piper" on the Emmy
Award winning show "Modern Family" (which first aired in January,
episode entitled “Under Pressure”). Her identical twin, Brooke Star also guest
starred in that episode playing the role of Zoe. Both girls had fun working
with the two principal young men in the show (Rico Rodriquez & Nolan Gould)
as their “twin girl school dates”.
At
the age of 14, Chelsea is professionally trained in music (piano, guitar and
drums), vocals (Pop/Rock), dance (Hip Hop/Jazz), and comedy improvisation. Her
current favorite hobbies and training is in archery and gymnastics, fueled by
watching "The Hunger Games" and the hope of working on a future
similar project.
Brooke Star loves a good challenge! She is dedicated to her training
in whatever skill she is trying to achieve. Her passion is music and dance,
both of which she does very well! Starting with piano lessons and moving on to
school band, Brooke is learning to play fourteen different wind, string and percussion
instruments ranging from Piano,
Keyboards, Bass Clarinet, Clarinet, Flute, Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone,
Guitar, Drums, Ukulele, Chimes, Tambourine, Shakers, Recorder fueled
by her desire to receive a law and/or entertainment scholarship to Harvard!
At the age of 14, Brooke is a trained Composer/Songwriter currently
working in the recording studio with her identical twin sister, Chelsea Summer
on their first original single entitled, “You Let Me Fall”, scheduled for
release later this year.
The year 2012 marked Brooke's first Principal booking for a Sprint commercial
(along with her identical twin sister, Chelsea Summer) and a Guest Star role as
"Jamie Graham" in "Evil Deeds" (Crime Drama).
In 2013, she starred as Cassie in a short film
entitled “A Better Place”, directed by Javi Joseph, which went on to win first
place at the Caddie Short Film Festival at La Sierra University. She also
worked directly with Danny Trejo as the young girl Olivia in the feature film
“Beyond Justice”.
In recent years on television, Brooke has played
various roles on Disney’s “Ant Farm”, “Jessie” and “Girl Meets World”, CBS’s
“Bad Teacher”, ABC’s “The Middle” and “Brothers & Sisters”, and TNT’s
“Major Crimes”. However, Brooke’s biggest television break came when she
recently guest starred as Zoe on the Emmy Award winning show "Modern
Family" on January 15, 2014. Her twin sister, Chelsea Summer, also guest
starred with her in the same episode (“Under Pressure”) as Piper. Both girls
had fun working with the two principal young men in the show (Rico Rodriquez
& Nolan Gould) as their “twin girl school dates”.
The
excitement of these theatrical accomplishments has increased Brooke's
determination to achieve her dream of bigger roles in both television and
feature films. Keep your eyes on Brooke Star as she continues her determined
journey to success!
Transforming Napoleon Dynamites into the life of the party two left feet at a time. We're here to help you become an amazing dancer in the privacy of your own home so you can have more fun every night you go out! From the backup dancers to Beyonce, P Diddy, Gwen Stefani, The Black Eyed Peas, Jay Z, and Shakira, comes a revolutionary new dance system that cuts out all the boring choreography, and teaches you the simple, attention grabbing moves you need to be sexy, natural, and spontaneous on the dance floor. News flash: It's not cool to do the Robot. At least not out at a club when trying to impress the opposite sex. If you're one of many guys and girls who feel awkward and out of place on the dance floor, Paul promises his dance DVDs can take anyone from gawky to groovin' in under an hour.
The idea for instructional dance videos came to him after a friend's desperate quest to learn some moves. "My buddy got all these DVDs, but they only taught him weird break-dancing routines, which weren't exactly what he had in mind," says Bolotovsky, laughing. "He called me one night and was like, ‘Dude, I don't know how to bring this up but I need to learn how to dance.'"
Bolotovsky and his buddy scoured the Internet for classes or videos that could help regular people look decent on the dance floor, but came up empty.
"So we invented it," says Bolotovsky, who created DVDs for both sexes that promise uncomplicated steps - and better nights out. The bulk of these videos break down each move step-by-step, covering everything from where to put your hands to how it should look when you're dancing with a partner.
"It teaches you some moves, but there's no choreography," he promises. "You're not going to do a routine when you're out - hopefully!"
LearnClubDance.com uses professional backup dancers to teach practical club style dance moves that are useful for weddings, proms, parties, and those nights on the town.
