Our Programs
STUDIO ARTS for Dancers offers classes for every child at each stage of development from creative movement to pre-professional. With year-round programs and performance opportunities for every age, world-class summer intensives with guest teachers, and drop-in classes for adults, we offer something for everyone.
Under the direction of Artistic Director, Lisa Hall McKee, our school provides correct and technical instruction in every genre at every level while nurturing a passion, respect and love for dance regardless of a dancer's ambitions.
Classes
Each program offers classes in some or all of the following techniques. STUDIO ARTS faculty are well-versed and highly experienced in each technique that they teach, giving our students a strong foundation of classical training in modern, ballet, Horton, tap, and jazz or inspiring a love for and appreciation of dance in our creative movement classes.

Performance Opportunities
Each spring, students have the opportunity to perform at the historic Tennessee Theatre as part of our annual Spring Show. With professional lighting, choreography, costumes, props, and full sets, the students receive a truly professional performance experience. From in-studio run throughs, to show week tech and dress rehearsals, the students prepare for the performance just as professional dancers would.
Rehearsals for the Spring Show are held as part of class beginning after Spring Break. Additional weekend rehearsals are required beginning 2-4 weeks before the performance.
