Our Mission

We believe in a wholesome and caring dance education, where our choice in music, costuming and choreography are thoughtfully presented as family friendly. Our passion is to aid our dancers in realizing their potential no matter their body type, ability or background. Through our small classes, fast friendships are made and confidence is built.

Our History

We are the longest running dance studio in Mount Pleasant, NY, originally opened in 1964 as Rose’s School of Dance.  Ms. Rose, as she was dearly called, set the foundation on which we continue to build on, that is of hard work, self acceptance and inclusiveness. The INSPIRE-ation left by her 55 year career is what encouraged Ms. Silvana to continue after Rose’s retirement in 2019.
