Miss Andi's life changed at age four when she stepped on stage for her first dance recital.  Since then, she took every opportunity to learn about the art.  Throughout her dance training, she attended various ballet master classes taught by professionals through the American Ballet Theatre, Kirov Ballet, and Royal Winnipeg Ballet.  She also enjoyed the multiple dance conventions throughout the years that focused on ballet, tap, jazz, hiphop, lyrical, and modern.  In high school, Miss Andi spent several weeks at Blue Lake Fine Arts camp where she studied ballet and pointe technique, ballet variations, modern, and jazz.  As college approached, she made the challenging decision to study electrical engineering at the University of Michigan-Dearborn.  After receiving her degree and working in the automotive industry for several years, she left the industry to begin teaching dance again!  Since then, she became a certified STOTT Pilates instructor and ACE Personal Trainer.  She enjoys not only choreographing, but instructing students proper alignment, form, and technique.  Miss Andi is also very passionate about her family, hiking, running, and her pups!  

Miss Alison has been dancing since age three and she's continued ever since.  She received her BA degree from Eastern Michigan University with a dual major in Dance and Business Marketing.  While in college, her performing experience included roles in Don Quixote, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, numerous annual concerts, student composition works, and more.  She had the opportunity to perform in a locally filmed music video for the band Sycamour.  Master classes are a favorite of Miss Alison's and she has attended multiple with the Bolshoi Ballet, Kirov Ballet, as well as a number of dance conventions where she took class under some top choreographers in the entertainment dance industry.  Choreography is a fierce love of Miss Alison's and she's been doing it her entire life. Alongside choreographing, teaching dance and movement will always be Miss Alison's true passion. Taking that next step in her dance journey to run her own studio has been the best decision she's made and she feels beyond blessed to live out her dream and share her love and passion for choreography and dance with all of her students.  In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, baking, and staying active.
