Get to Know Francesca Stern, Owner

I have been teaching ballet, jazz and tap since I was a teenager. I have been in many schools and seen many different styles and approaches to teaching. I always knew I wanted to open a professional school, where all would be taught and guided toward their goal as professional dancers. I believe that all dancers should receive this high level of training, even if they are recreational dancers or dancers who have returned to dance as a way to stay in shape.

I promised myself that when I opened my studio it would always be a positive place of learning. As a young dancer, I trained in many studios where this was not the case. You may have seen the mean spirited reality shows about dance studios, I say nonsense to that. Dancers learn and perform better when they are treated well and feel secure. We support each other and this support comes full circle making stronger dancers! We love and honor all dancers and are thrilled that you have chosen to study with us. My door is always open, and I welcome your thoughts. If you are ever concerned about your dancer’s progress, or why something is done a certain way, I would love to share the reasons and the path with you. I am excited for your journey in dance and I am looking forward to the future with you.
