Nothing better than that. You earned it!! (there were choreography, entertainment, judges’ choice, and platinums+ galore, too🪩🪩)

Who has this Recital Tee??? 2017.
Picture Perfect.
This was a favorite theme of mine—- every dance correlated to and was titled after a famous painting AND WE HAD FRAMES onstage that had poster-sized reprints of the paintings that we changed periodically throughout the show. Remember????

Nan’s oldest daughter, Jennifer Grinwis, grew up in the studio, started teaching after college, and has been director since 2002. Jon & Jen Grinwis now own the company.

The objective for our studio is to provide top quality instruction at a competitive price. The objective for our students is to encourage technical proficiency in their area of interest, but more importantly to build self-discipline, poise, and self-esteem. From September through May, we offer quality instruction in ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary, pointe, hip hop, praise & worship, zumba, pound, drama, preschool and athletic training at all levels. Our studios are equipped with cushioned, floating floors, mirrors, and barres designed specifically for dance and to reduce injury. All classes are taught by qualified, adult instructors!
