Diane Matthews School of Dance
Our school has had students go on to pursue careers in dance and even dance professionally, but more importantly, our students go on to pursue life’s challenges with confidence, poise and courage. Students benefit from our challenging and yet encouraging and supportive environment. We are proud of the many students who have come and developed through the benefits of our very special school.
We want everyone at the Diane Matthews School of Dance Arts to have a positive, growing experience in dance. Students progress more quickly and can enjoy the benefits of dance more fully by attending at least two classes per week which is our recommendation.
As we kick off this memorable year, we invite you to be a part of our dance community and celebrate in the joy of dancing and the activities of this exciting year.
