We opened our doors here in San
Marcos in August of 1999 with only a handful of students, but with enough vision for 200. Our goal was to establish a professional
studio that offered quality dance training in a safe, family environment. With the support of our community, our students,
and their families, we have achieved that goal. We believe it is important that children experience the world of the performing
arts. Not only does dance provide physical exercise, but also a vehicle for self-expression and creativity. We strive to impart
not only proper terminology and steps to our students, but also the love of the art. Our studio has grown now to over 200
students and we remain dedicated to providing our dancers with the most professional and up to date training.
