Our
STUDIOS
Our studios in Murrysville and Plum Boro provide spacious viewing areas which allows parents the opportunity to watch their children expand their dance education and gives the younger students that bit of reassurance.
Both studios include dance floors that have shock absorbent subfloor systems to decrease stress on bones and joints which inherently eliminates injury and reduces fatigue on your dancer. All staff are formally educated and hold degrees from prominent universities so we understand how important your child’s academics are. Our faculty continue their own dance education by frequently attending various workshops throughout the area and strive to engage and inspire our dancers.
Each year our students have the opportunity to showcase the skills they mastered throughout the season in our annual recital. Dancers ages 3-7 perform in their own production beginning at Noon, while all dancers ages 8 and up get the chance to shine in our 4:00 performance. Both recitals are held at the auditorium at Franklin Regional High School.
