10 Years of TSPA Holland π€
What an incredible milestone! Last week, the energy was absolutely electric as we celebrated our 10 Year Anniversary Event. It was an unforgettable night filled with laughter, shared memories, and pure celebration, making it a massive success for our entire community.
We were thrilled to welcome a packed house of current students, proud alumni, our dedicated staff, and local salon owners who have supported us over the past decade. It was the perfect opportunity to look back at how far we have come and look forward to the future of beauty education in Holland.
A major highlight of the evening was the live runway show. It served as an amazing display of our current students’ talents, featuring five different teams who showcased their incredible skills in hair, makeup, and nails. From head to toe, each team brought bold concepts and precision work to the stage, proving just how much dedication and artistry our students possess.
Following the spectacular creative showcase, we welcomed Michigan State Representative Nancy DeBoer, who spoke to our guests and presented the academy with a special award from the State of Michigan to honor our ten years of excellence and dedication to workforce education.

The heart of the night, however, was recognizing the incredible individuals who make our academy so proud. We proudly handed out several prestigious awards to our standout alumni:
- Heart of Service Award: Elias Lopez

- Beauty Entrepreneur Award: Crystal VanderLaan
- Artist Award: Maria Veenstra
