We offer a one of a kind program that will enhance your child’s learning by integrating education into dance.

younger children not only learn movement but shapes, colors, number, letters, and how to say them in different languages

older children benefit from learning social skills, like how to work with their peers to achieve a common goal, and how to communicate with adults effectively.

Our classes are high value- we keep our tuition and costs low so that we can offer more children opportunities to dance

We understand that everyone learns differently

☆Miss Darcy- Founder and  Dance Teacher☆
Miss Darcy began her dancing career at the age of 4 when she enrolled in Ballet and tap. A year later she added gymnastics to her love of dance. It became a focal point in her life as she grew to love tap and ballet. Eventually she owned a mobile dance franchise and taught dance and gymnastics to children for more than 10 years. She was featured in Entrepreneur Magazine as a successful young business owner and was a franchise representative at the NAEYC (National Assoc. for the Education of Young Children) in Las Vegas. During this time, Miss Darcy inspired more than a thousand students to grow and learn through dance and gymnastics. During her ownership of the mobile dance franchise, she grew to love the children she taught and helped develop through tap and ballet.
Miss Darcy opened a new dance studio called GLOW Studio on April 4th 2016 and is once again inspiring young students to find joy and growth through Dance. Each Sunday, she is also active in teaching 3 and 4 year old children at her church. Children love her as much as she loves them. Miss Darcy has taken her passion for tap and ballet and developed an educational and fun studio where the children learn the “see, say, hear, do” method. GLOW Studio has been a huge success and Miss Darcy couldn’t be more proud of her students and the growth that they have experienced through dance.
