D & K 's Studio Of Dance Piano & Fitness

D&K's Studio requires all of its team members to be involved in weekly classes, in addition to their regularly scheduled team practice. All members are required to have regular attendance in their ballet, jazz, company, improv & contemporary classes. The team is involved in performance opportunities and yearly dance conventions and typically attend two dance competitions during the season. We have an active parent group who help to fundraise and offset additional expenses associated with those events. Team members have danced in Walt Disney World and in Nashville they performed on the Grand Ole Opry's stage.
