August 9, 2025

In 2009—just a few weeks after baby #3 was born—I started The Dancing House out of my 800-square-foot basement. I’d already been teaching for years, had a reputation in the community as a trusted dance educator, and thought, Let’s see if people will come to the house. They did.

The Dancer's Dilemma Is Attending Two Studios the Path to Improvement

As a parent or dancer, you might find yourself wondering: "Is it a good idea to take classes at two or three different studios if I want to improve?" Maybe your current studio doesn’t offer the level or variety of classes your dancer needs to grow. Naturally, the idea of attending another studio comes up. But is it the best use of your dancer’s time, energy, and resources?
