As founder, owner, and director of the The Studio of Dance Arts, Jane Morgan has been privileged to teach children and adults of all ages. It is her belief that Dance training plays a vital role in the mental, physical, and emotional growth of a person. It is the foundation of all dance technique and promotes confidence, poise, and grace, regardless of professional aspirations. She seeks to preserve that part of each individual that is the "creative artist" and encourage her students to become involved with all aspects of the theatre.
All of the students are invited to showcase their creative talents at the Studio's annual Dance Productions, which incorporate professional choreography, costuming, and staging. Past productions have included performances of The Firebird, A Tribute to the Classics, Thumbelina, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Peter Pan, Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, Pocahontas, The Best of Broadway, and Space Odyssey. Also presented are pieces in Jazz, Tap, Modern, Middle Eastern, and Irish Step.

Our purpose is to enrich our pupils with the rewards of professional instruction. We provide a well rounded education in all areas of Dance with an emphasis on a strong ballet foundation. It has been proven that those students with a good knowledge of ballet can easily move to any other dance form.
Dance is a glorious form of self expression. We have seen students blossom into graceful, confident individuals prepared to meet the world's challenges.
