The Dance Studio boasts very talented faculty with a wide range of dance experience. THE DANCE STUDIO OF KIRKSVILLE'S dance program is nationally known for its teaching of proper dance technique from the earliest ages through the most advanced classes, formulated by Director of Dance, Marcia Taylor, who earned her Degree in Dance from the Conservatory of Music and Dance at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, and has been principal instructor at the Kansas City Magnet School of Performing Arts, as well as a member of the dance faculty of three universities.
PEOPLE IN MOTION DANCERS are recognized as one of the premiere youth dance teams in the Midwest, and has numbered over 100 dancers ages 5 to 18. What makes this group so unique is Director Marcia Taylor's philosophy of providing multiple, diverse, no cost performance opportunities for its members. PIM DANCERS perform at area sporting events, parades, pageants, and, of course, THE DANCE STUDIO'S three studio-wide performances (Winter Performance, Spring Showcase and Summer Outdoor Dance Concert). This group is available to all dance students by simply enrolling in a single class - People In Motion Dancers Technique/Performance Class - based on the student's age, ability and experience.
From ballet to tap to hip-hop, and everything in between, The Dance Studio has classes (and qualified instructors) who will provide your dance student with the highest level instruction in a fun, family-centered environment.
