A native of the North Chicago suburbs, Ronna Rochell started dancing at age 5. At that young age, she started with creative movement classes, and by the time she was in junior high, she had evolved into a serious modern dance student. She was fortunate to have a fabulous teacher from junior high and high school who taught her the technique of Martha Graham and Alwin Nikolai. Her dance teacher's name was Carol Walker, who later went on to serve as Dean of the Department of Dance at SUNY Purchase. At age 16, after studying dance for a summer at the American Dance Festival at Duke University, Ronna auditioned and made it into one of the premiere modern dance companies in Chicago, the Joseph Holmes Dance Theatre. She was an apprentice with the company and performed with them as well. After dancing in college at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, she went on to pursue her MFA in dance at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, earning her degree in 1989. Right before graduation, she auditioned and was accepted into the New Dance Ensemble apprentice program. So after graduation, in 1989, she moved to Minneapolis and apprenticed with the dance company for one year. Next, inspired by the Nancy Hauser Dance Company, she was invited to join the company in 1991. Ronna was a member of the Nancy Hauser Dance company for two years. She finished her modern dance career dancing in a Walker Art Center sponsored event in Gerry Girouard's choreography on the beach of Cedar Lake in 1993! Since then she has gone back to her teaching roots and started her own business, BodyWisdom, teaching yoga, Pilates and fitness classes, as well as bringing chair yoga into senior living communities. More recently, she rebooted her dance career by going into musical theatre as she performed with Theatre 55 and had a fabulous time dancing in the productions of Pippin (2019) and A Chorus Line (2023). Now Ronna focuses on continuing teaching yoga and fitness classes, spending time with her three adult sons, tandem biking with her husband Steve, and enjoying cross-country skiing, even racing at the American Birkebeiner. She is proud to say that she skied the Kortelopet at this event- 29 kilometers- and she just received her 10 year plaque for the Kortelopet - quite an achievement for her!

Celebrating $205.8 Million and Future Cedarville SphereThe future of Cedarville University seems to rise right out of the waters of Cedar Lake on the latest Cedarville Stories podcast.The conversation opens with the kind of news that gives Cedarville plenty to celebrate. Dr. Will Smallwood, Cedarville's Vice President for Advancement, reflects on the strong finish of the 1000 Days Transformed Campaign, which raised a record-setting $205.8 million. He describes a campus humming with momentum — scholarships are transforming students' lives, new facilities reshaping daily routines, and generous gifts strengthening Cedarville's mission for years to come.That momentum is already showing up across campus. Students are learning in new and upgraded spaces, living in expanded housing, and stepping into opportunities that would have seemed out of reach only a few years ago. Smallwood points to the growing number of students serving with Global Outreach teams, discipleship thriving in residence halls and chapel, and a University determined to remain faithful to its mission. Cedarville, he explains, is not simply enjoying the success of a completed campaign. It is stewarding those gifts carefully and putting them to work right now.That makes the next part of the conversation sound even more believable.As attention turns to rumors about Cedarville's future, one idea begins to loom larger than the rest: the Cedarville Sphere. Not a simple bridge over the lake. Not merely another campus building. A sphere. A striking, immersive, 100,000-square-foot venue rising in the middle of Cedar Lake, wrapped in a 360-degree LED display and designed to reimagine chapel, classes, concerts, and even athletic events. With talk of renderings, architectural conversations, innovation, and a projected $400 million price tag, the vision sounds ambitious but not impossible for a University riding a wave of growth and generosity.In fact, it sounds like classic Cedarville — daring, distinctive, and centered on student transformation. The vision feels bold, but not outlandish for a University fresh off a historic campaign and full of forward-looking energy. For most of the episode, the Cedarville Sphere stands there in the imagination like the next big step, a landmark-sized symbol of a campus already expanding in remarkable ways.But beware of the loftiness of the idea. In fact, you'll want to stay tuned to the entire program to dissect fact from fiction on this special April podcast.Clearly, the playful ending of the Cedarville Sphere does not take away from the larger story. It sharpens it. Cedarville may not be building a glowing globe on Cedar Lake, but it is clearly building something lasting in the lives of its students.https://share.transistor.fm/s/77f2c625https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5JI5Gi4NlY

Jeff Braverman joins HarmonyTALK to reflect on 30 years of leadership at Camp Nesher and the unexpected decisions that helped shape one of its most meaningful legacies.What began as a dream to create a vibrant summer camp experience centered on community and faith took an unexpected turn when he was approached by a parent who asked if their wheelchair-bound child with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy could be accommodated and welcomed at camp. Braverman’s decision to move forward would become one of the most defining moments of his career. He didn’t simply advocate for accessibility. He embedded it into the culture of the camp itself, shaping programs and practices that welcomed campers of all abilities as equal participants through a partnership program with the national organization Yachad (Hebrew for “together”,) whose mission is inclusion for individuals with developmental disabilities into the greater Jewish community. Located in Lakewood, Pennsylvania, Camp Nesher is part of NJY Camps, a 105-year-old organization and one of the world’s largest camping agencies, awarding up to $2 million in scholarships each year. In addition, NJY brings more than 40 years of experience in inclusive programming through its Round Lake inclusion program at its Milford, Pennsylvania, property which includes Camps Nah-Jee-Wah, Cedar Lake and Teen Camp. In this inspiring conversation with host Todd Stephens, Braverman shares leadership lessons learned along the way and how passion, purpose and music can move in harmony.

We're live at Cedar Lake's south beach for a conversation about the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board allowing some of the wealthiest residents in the city to get away with privatizing the public lakefront on the southeast section of Cedar Lake. Why? Because they're rich as hell. I'm joined by Jake Werner, someone who's spent a long time keeping tabs on the issue and being very pissed off about it. We talk about the history going back to the first Cedar Lake "temporary" encroachments in 1938. By the end of the episode we climb over all obstacles, scale a rock wall, and unfurl a banner to reclaim Cedar Lake for the people.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee
