Ms Claire | Teacher

Born and raised in Texas, I started dancing at the age of three. I trained in a variety of styles, including Jazz, Hip Hop, Contemporary, Ballet, Lyrical, and Musical Theatre. I began dancing competitively at the age of eleven. In high school, I was a member of my high schools dance team and served as captain during my senior year. It was there that I was introduced to Poms and Kick. I have a deep love and appreciation for all styles of dance. As a dance teacher, my goal is to share that passion with kids of all ages. I believe dance should be fun, but it should also teach valuable life lessons. When I’m not at the studio, I’m a student at CU Boulder, studying Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences with a minor in Dance.

Ms Bella | Front Desk & Teacher

Born and raised in Colorado Springs, my dance career started at the age of three with a tap/ballet combo class. As a child even if I wasn’t in the mood to dance I always loved being at the studio. This led me into starting to compete at the age of five all the way throughout high school. I am currently a student at CU Boulder with a major in Leadership and Community engagement with double minors in business and dance. I also am a part of the CU Spirit Program. Through my year of learning as a student and as an assistant teacher this year I have been developing my teaching pedagogy.

Colorful Colorado has been my home all my life. My husband and I have been married for 40 years and have three children and three grandchildren. We love spending our summers camping and fishing all over this beautiful state. In my free time, I enjoy reading, sewing, and being with our family. Our son lives in Illinois with his lovely wife and their three beautiful daughters. It’s a dream come true to support our daughters, Brianna and Callie, who own the dance studio, and to see their passion for dance come alive in all the dancers they love and teach!
