Our owner, Kasey Darlene teaches our in-studio classes.

Kasey has taught for many dance studios in both Texas and Florida for a decade. She believes that teaching the next generation is one of the highest honors one can have and loves teaching equally as much as she enjoys dancing and performing. To perform for the sake of entertainment is one thing, but to perform as a form of worship and share that with young dancers is far more rewarding.
