The LifeStyle Connection is a dynamic group of real women who come together to entertain, inspire and support each other.  They enjoy the opportunity to grow and help other women to grow.  They share their talents to inspire, motivate and strengthen other women. This is a group of women who have a common goal to be the best they can be...every day!   

This is an auditioned group, but the audition is very simple and is not intimidating.  The goal for the audition is to see where you are today and find out how great is your desire to be better tomorrow.

Ladies of The LifeStyle Connection will be able to sing, but do not have to have a solo voice.  They will have rhythm, but do not have to be an experienced dancer.  They will need to be able to speak from stage, but do not have to be a public speaker.  They will need to be able to socialize with ease when introduced to new acquaintences. 

These ladies will either already have a polished look or be willing to develop a polished look.  There will be tremendous support for whatever you need to do to become the lady you would like to be.  All members of "The Lifestyle Connection" will recieve an Arts Center Membership for half price.  (Center Membership is not required to be a member of The LifeStyle Connection).

The goal of this group is to be an example of what accomplished southern women look like!  You, along with Rita, will attend events where you may do anything from greeting folks at the door, to modeling, to performing a group song on stage. 

You will be a chosen, polished service group to inspire other women!  You will look so forward to our events as they will not only encourage and inspire others, but will be a personal highlight of your life as well. 

Although there will only be 2 to 3 events per month, there will be some rehearsals and coordination meetings along the way.  Some of our events will be during the day and some in the evening.  In fact, for the first few months, there may only be one or two events a month, until we get our group established.  There are some very exciting plans for us as we mature together!

The audition is private with Rita and will last approximately 20-30 minutes.  You will need to sing a verse and chorus of any song you choose, with or without music (but no voices on the track if you use music.)  If you are able to harmonize, Rita would also like to hear some harmony!  You will need to show that you can move to the rhythm of a song (Rita will lead you).  If you play an instrument, please bring it and play just a short piece for Rita.  If you play the piano, there is one in the Arts Center.  You will need to stand and speak for one minute (as if speaking to an audience) on any subject you choose.  Rita will ask you three questions about anything, just to see how well you can "think on your feet!" Lastly, Rita would like to know what your deepest desires are for yourself...what you would like to accomplish...where you want to be and what you want to look like this time next year!  It will be lots of fun!  Send us a message in the form below giving Rita three days and times that you would be available for an audition and she will let you know when to come. 

Blessings to you as you bless others!

What a joy it is to have a life filled with beautiful sisters!  One of my dearest friends, Darlene Real Higginbotham, is really the motivation for this wonderful addition of "The LifeStyle Connection" to my new Center for the Arts, Education and Wellness.  She and her similar group, The Model Connection, have experienced tremendous success.  I have pictured her below with The Model Connection (sitting on the right).  Thank you, Darlene, for your beautiful spirit and wonderful insight.  ~Rita

What a blessing you are to me.  If it was only a visit, your bright spirit would have lifted me up, however, you did not come for a visit alone; but to bless my socks off with your knowledge.  You are such a gentle teacher.  Thank you does not fully express my appreciation, but it is my best so Thank You.  Your encouragement has changed me.  With love and appreciation, Darlene
