WELCOME

Welcome to Our Studios!

Celebrating More Than 25 Years of Dance Excellence on the Shore!

Owner/Director, "Mrs. Shari" started in a small room, with small groups of students, and a big vision of bringing professional quality dance instruction

to our Eastern Shore community. 


The 2020-21 Season marked our 25th Year, and we were faced with unprecedented challenges.


We met those challenges with the grace, poise, and discipline that dance has instilled within us. 

Most importantly, no matter what the format, we will keep DANCING!!!


Dance.  Is.  Essential.


"Dancers must be flexible in every meaning of the term." - Mrs. Shari

Why Study Dance?


Of course, Dance is LOTS OF FUN!!!  But did you know........


  • Dance engages students mind and body, developing both mental and physical balance, strength, and agility. (Great for athletes, too!) 
  • Dance improves posture, coordination, balance, and flexibility.
  • Dance provides healthy, positive non-competitive group interaction.
  • Dancers develop long term memory and goal setting as they work together toward successful performance.
  • In addition to all those great dance moves, dancers learn history, language, anatomy, geometry, and even physics!!
  • Dance friends are the best friends.
  • A positive experience in dance develops a lifelong appreciation for the arts.
