About Missy
Early Childhood Dance Philosophy
I believe that from a young age children are drawn to music and dancing. In a joyful dance environment children are developing a love and appreciation for the art of dance. I believe that in the early childhood years, dance class should be fun! While enjoying this dance and music experience, children are benefiting in many areas and building a foundation of skills to use throughout their lifetime.
