About Us:

We were pleased and blessed to be able to move into our current location that has 11,000 square feet and is located at 21990 Greenfield. We now have 4 large dance rooms, three student dressing rooms, office space, lounge space, viewing areas for parents and a cafeteria. We are located across from Northland, within Oak Park but across the street from Southfield and just a few blocks north of Detroit. Most of our students are from Detroit, Oak Park and Southfield but many come from as far away as Canton, Ypsilanti, Inkster, Eastpointe, Troy and other distal suburbs. Our prices for both classes and shows still represent one of the best deals in the area. Most classes currently include tap, ballet and jazz/hip hop or tap, ballet and gymnastics for younger students. In addition, we have other classes such as gymnastic or hip/hop only. Though most of our classes are designed for girls and boys aged 3 -18 years old, we have adult classes like Pilates, Hustle, Ballroom, Jazz/Hip Hop and Tap. Because our facility is large, we can accommodate families with multiple children frequently allowing both siblings to dance at the same time in different studios. We also have classes for parents. Over the years we have become one of the largest dance schools in the Detroit metropolitan area and in Michigan. We employ over almost two dozen adults and teen-aged assistants; however, our adult teachers lead all classes. Our main goals are:
 - Providing quality instruction to all students
 - Enhancing and building student self-esteem through dance achievement, and
 - Providing quality theatrical production to the metropolitan Detroit community

Since 1981, we have presented two productions a year, one just before Christmas and one in late spring / early summer. These programs are open to the public and are attended by students, parents, former students and those that enjoy dance, music and theatre.
