Inspiring Endless Possibilities,
One Step At A Time

Welcome to Dance AS!
More Than A Studio. It's a Movement.
Dance AS isn’t just a studio—it’s a movement.
Here, dancers of every age and ability discover their voice, build confidence, and find joy in ballet, jazz, contemporary, and hip-hop. We believe dance transforms—and our name is the promise: Dance AS Expression. Dance AS Growth. Dance AS Family. Every step is an invitation to belong, to create, and to be part of something greater.

Spotlight On...
Black History Month
Honoring Black History Through Dance
This February, Dance AS is honoring Black History by spotlighting four Black artists whose work has shaped the dance world across generations.
Dance is deeply rooted in Black history, culture, and innovation. While this is not history we own, it is our responsibility as educators and artists to honor, protect, and acknowledge the legacies that continue to influence how—and why—we dance.
Each week, we are featuring one artist whose work reflects a different part of dance’s story. Think of it as opening a new picture book—part blog, part children’s tale, part movement adventure. We’ll share images, easy activities, and creative prompts that invite young dancers to move like the artists we meet. Curious to know more? Every post will include links and ideas to help families keep exploring together.
Week 2 - Gregory Hines
Week 3 - Rennie Harris
Week 4 - Debbie Allen

Experiences
Dance AS Dance has been the BEST experience for my daughter! We absolutely love the team the warm and welcoming atmosphere and how supportive her dance teachers are. Ms. Kelly and Ms. Cassidy have helped her build more confidence within herself. She truly enjoys going to dance and has lots of fun learning new techniques. The teachers are very dedicated, inspiring, passionate, patient, motivating and we overall love how they connect with their dancers. We know our daughter is in great hands and she will continue to grow and thrive as she gets older.

From the Artistic Director
Every dancer's journey at Dance AS is different, but one thing stays the same - the growth, the confidence, and the joy that come with it. Whether it's taking that first class, finding a passion, or building lifelong friendships, our dancers and families have real stories to tell. Their experiences show how dance goes beyond movement - it inspires, empowers, and creates a place to belong. Real stories. Real Growth. Ready to start yours? We can't wait to dance with you!
