About The Well Center for Movement & Dance, home of Whirlwind Dance & The WyND Program

The Well Center for Movement & Dance, home of Whirlwind Dance & The WyND Program, is a vibrant hub located in Columbus, Ohio, dedicated to fostering artistic growth and personal development through dance. Offering a diverse range of styles including Ballet, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Jazz, Tap, Musical Theater, and Acrobatics, the studio caters to dancers of all ages and levels. Our experienced instructors, including Tiffany Frost, Laura Courtney, MacKenzie LaFlamme, Abby Jones, Morgan Pinkham, Sheena Kapila, Rachel Courtney Franz, Gaetan O'Brien, Liv Barner, Maggie Kuhn, Sarah Sinclair, Augus Wang, Morgan Sandlin, Sarah Chavez, and Jack Federinko, bring a wealth of passion and expertise to their teaching. The Well Center is proud to feature The WyND Program, Columbus' premier pre-professional youth company for dancers aged 13-18, cultivating the next generation of talented artists. This rigorous program provides extensive training opportunities, including weekly ballet technique, conditioning, contemporary with improvisation, and training in jazz, tap, and hip hop, preparing dancers for professional careers. Dancers also participate in weekly rehearsals for community performances and may explore competitive choreography, though it's not the primary focus of The WyND Program. For those seeking a collaborative space to dance, connect, and recharge, our "Sunday Sessions," in partnership with Short North Stage, are a popular offering. We emphasize nurturing talent and providing a supportive environment, encouraging dancers to flourish not only artistically but in all aspects of their lives, making us a cornerstone for movement and dance in Central Ohio. Aspiring WyND Program participants are encouraged to email the WyND Program Director, Tiffany Frost, at thewelldirectors@gmail.com to schedule an audition.
