Teaching Since 2025

We are pleased to introduce you to the goofy and energetic Mr. Dean. For over 15 years he has trained in the tap, ballet, and ballroom genres of dance, and we are thrilled to have his fun personality and calm demeanor here to teach kids through adults in our tap program. He aspires to make tap performance as smooth and fun to watch as Gene Kelly once did – and he sure succeeds. When he’s not teaching dance he can be found out on adventures with his beloved wife, practicing piano, sipping on some tea or enjoying sour candy or ice cream – or just plain dancing anyway!
