You have spoken and the results for the 2018 Cleveland’s Hotlist are in!
We are so very excited to say that we continue to hold the title of Best Ballroom Dance Studio for the 3rd consecutive year!! We placed 2nd out of 22 dance studios in all around Best Dance Studio for Adults, and our children’s studio placed 4th out of 32 nominated dance studios for Best Children’s Dance Studio! Fourth place is a big deal since our children’s studio hasn’t even been open a year yet and we beat out some studios that have been around for 30 years!! Out of all of the dance studios in the greater Cleveland area, our family, friends, and students both past and present have voted us THE BEST and we couldn’t be more excited, thankful, and proud!
Ballroom dancing is a great way to get into shape that is fun, exciting, and good for your mind as well!
Neuroscientists have discovered that between fitness training and dance, although both activities helped reduce the aging process in seniors, only dance was most effective in reversing the signs of aging in the brain!
These are some of the tiniest dancers in our Rhythm & Grace dance family and therefore, they have different challenges than the older girls.
JOIN OUR TUMBING / ACRO CLASS on Wednesdays from 4-5pm!

Here is a useful little checklist to use for preparation for a Dancesport event or Showcase.
Plie: with turned out feet and heels firmly on the ground, the dancer bends at the knees, and then straightens them
Releve: dancer rises onto the tips of the toes
Arabesque: dancer stands on one leg, with the other leg extended horizontally backwards
Shuffle: A quick dragging or scraping movement of the feet in tap dancing
Brush: swinging of the foot (forward, backward or diagonally side) hitting only the ball tap in tap dancing
