    Our Focus is Proper Technique.

    Teaching smaller dance classes was necessary when Catherine’s Dance Studio first began, and it remains the driving reason why Catherine’s students are making their high school and college dance teams. The instructors see and guide every foot, every turn of the wrist, and even every gesture. Our smaller class sizes allow our students to learn, practice, and memorize proper techniques from the beginning. All instructors believe that proper technique is a foundation for better dancing.

    A student with proper technique will learn and grow more as a dancer, which translates into high self-confidence as a dancer and young woman.

    For Nothing is Impossible with God.

      We absolutely love Catherine’s Dance Studio. My daughter has been dancing there since she was 2 1/2, she’s 11 now. Since she’s been a dancer there, she has grown so much. It’s wonderful to see the progression every year. Their studio offers talented, professional instructors who are truly passionate about dance and teaching. I believe they are building a strong foundation for all the dancers. I highly recommend Catherine’s to any future girl that loves dance!

      Catherine’s Dance Studio is hands down the best studio around! Catherine, Judy and all the dance teachers are the most caring people! My oldest daughter has been dancing there for 7 years and has loved every minute of it. I highly recommend Catherine’s to anyone who is looking for a studio!

      Catherine's is the place to be if you want your dancer to receive lots of personal attention and encouragement. My girls have loved to dance with Miss. Catherine. She keeps class size small and her kindness and caring for the girls shows each week. Give it a try, your dancer will love it!

      I am a local designer/costumer maker and work very closely with Catherine and Judy, I see only smiles and hard work from their students when I am at the studio. I would recommend CDS over and over again.

      This is my daughters first year of dance and i couldn't have picked a better place for her to learn to dance. She tells me every Wednesday when she is done that she loves it and and looks forward to it. She also told me she wants to keep dancing as long as she can. I personal love the staff there classes are small and the teachers are great with the kids.

      Because of this studio I have learned so much and I am forever grateful for the family I have gained from them. They are nothing but positive and love every single kid with the upmost respect. You will never know the feeling of a loving, family based studio until you get to feel it for yourself. I am so thankful for Catherine’s Dance Studio!

      My daughter has danced at Catherine's for the past 6 years. It has always been such a positive and encouraging environment. My daughter has grown so much while there, her love of dance is undeniable. She has gained great friendships, and confidence. The instructors at the studio are the kids biggest cheerleaders! Catherine has a true gift with children. I am thankful that we found the studio all those years ago
