Our Story

We are a vibrant performing arts company with a diverse background. Initially, we started as a social ballroom dance company, primarily catering to seniors. Our focus was on creating social experiences and supporting individuals going through cancer by organizing activities such as cruises and dance events. From the beginning, we aimed to provide personalized concierge services.

In 2010, an exciting opportunity came our way. A passionate individual approached us with the idea of introducing ballroom dancing to kids in schools. Despite initial challenges in reaching school districts, we took on the task ourselves and personally reached out to every school. Eventually, we secured agreements with six schools to run a 24-week ballroom dance program, culminating in a thrilling performance where the students showcased their dance routines.

As word spread about our success, we received referrals from district to district, steadily expanding our reach. Today, we are a dedicated performing arts education company committed to providing enriching experiences both inside and outside the classroom. Our passion remains strong in fostering memorable social growth, promoting well-being, and nurturing a love for dance and wellness within our community.

MEET THE FOUNDER

I embarked on my dance journey at the age of seven, and ever since, it has been an integral part of my life. I received formal training at the esteemed Debbie Reynolds Rehearsal Studio, a renowned establishment where the legendary Michael Jackson rehearsed for his iconic "Thriller" performance. This studio holds a special place in the dance world. Throughout my years of training, I immersed myself in various disciplines, including ballet, jazz, tap, gymnastics, ballroom, and Latin. In 2002, I expanded my repertoire by mastering the art of ballroom dancing and went on to share my passion as an instructor at Arthur Murray Dance Studios. Eventually, I decided to pursue my dreams further and established my own dance company, where I continue to express my expertise and love for dance.
