A well established dance studio on James Island and serving schools across Charleston, we are dedicated to ensuring a nurturing and educational environment for your dancer.
We promote positive body image and self confidence while educating our students. Dance Moves of Charleston was founded in 2002 by Jessica Beran. Her vision was to have a studio that offered formal technical training while offering a nurturing family atmosphere. Our mission is to be a dance studio that fosters each dancer’s self-esteem through the knowledge and appreciation for dance as a professional form of art and provides educational opportunities for our students to explore dance and performance.

We know that dance is one of the most challenging art forms there is, but we also know dance can bring so much joy and fulfillment to a person's life!
The next time dance class feels a little frustrating, remember the young dancer you used to be. Reflect on how far you've come, and how much farther you are going to go!

Two of our very own staff, Ms Maddie P and Ms Leslie have choreographed pieces for CofC's Fall concert, which can be viewed on demand starting 10/25! We are so very proud to have such amazing and talented teachers here at Dance Moves!
Read here for more info on the concert:
dance, deconstructed
Artistic Director Gretchen McLaine
Necessity breeds creativity, and this pandemic has allowed our choreographers to explore creative new paths to building a performance which challenges the dancers in unexpected ways. This year's fall concert, dance, deconstructed, promises to offer the audience exciting choreography and spectacular dancing through a digital format. Artists explore deconstructing the idea of performance and choreographic processes as the current pandemic pushes a re-evaluation of how we approach dance.
October 25th - November 1st - This production is Video on Demand
TICKETS - $18 (Groups of 3 or more), $8 (Adults, Military & Seniors), $5 (CofC Faculty, Staff & Students), $5 (18 and under)
