In Mary’s opinion, Center Stage is unique among other dance studios because their dancers are very diverse, many taking classes in Tap, Jazz, Lyrical, Hip-hop, Contemporary, and Ballet.
Her proudest moments occur when she see their kids on stage performing with passion for dance and for one another.
The biggest mistakes Mary sees dancers make are usually technical. Center Stage has really upped their emphasis on technique over the last few years.
Center Stage’s goals are modest. They would like a smooth transition to their new studio, a strong year at competition, and to continue to increase enrollment.
Mary is a lifelong dance teacher. She decided to open Center Stage Dance Studio because she wanted to be able to push my kids in a new direction. They opened 15 years ago.
