Our founder and artistic director began dancing at the age of six. From there, she continued her dance instruction and education with elite schools in the New York area and eventually graduated from Marymount College of Fordham University Suma Cum Laude with two Bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics and Secondary Education. Her name is Kyra Johnson, but at the studio here in New Rochelle, we all call her “Ms. Her dream was to offer outlets and opportunities for performing arts to everyone, most importantly the underprivileged. In 2009, Kyra found a location and made the dream a reality -- classes and performances have been going strong ever since. Each of our staff have unique, professional backgrounds and come from all over the world, so students are immersed in a culturally diverse atmosphere. The dances and techniques taught here are proof that we offer a quality-standard and variety of instruction like nowhere else.

We invited you into the depths with Deep Waters.

Through powerful movement and unforgettable storytelling, we explored what it means to navigate life's currents—the struggles that threaten to pull us under, the faith that keeps us afloat, and the transformation that happens beneath the surface.

But what happens when the waters settle?

What happens in the moments between the waves?

✨ This season's production, Power in the Pause, answers that question.

Through breathtaking choreography, compelling storytelling, and raw emotion, Power in the Pause will challenge you to embrace the sacred space between where you've been and where you're going.

Discover who you become in the stillness!

Join us on June 20 at 5:00 PM | 🎟️ Reserve your seat today.
