A note from our director
15 Years of Fabulous at Rhythm n Motion
“It has been my joy to lead RnM for the past 15 years, and I’m passionate about building an engaged and supportive dance community. The skills—and friendships—made through dance stay with you for life. Because I know the power of a dance education, I’m committed to removing barriers and creating opportunities for everyone to participate. We are honored to be your local dance studio, and I’ve cherished maintaining relationships with students for more than a decade. You’re in good hands here, and I hope movement continues to inspire and motivate you.”
