About Us

Hard to believe it’s year 20 for DSDC! What started as a competitive cheer team, Mrs. Mary Jo  took a chance to live out her dream and create her own dance studio! Here we are 20 years in business and we are beyond blessed with all of the wonderful memories that have been made along the way! Words cannot express how truly blessed we are! We have an exciting year planned with new events to come! We offer ballet, lyrical, tap, jazz and tumbling to ages preschool to high school. Our students participate in community events throughout the year and end the year with their annual dance recital in June. Come join our amazing diva family!
