ARABESQUE STAFF
Decades of experience
Our highly skilled staff, trained in all dance genres, provides age appropriate music, choreography and costuming to dancers to feel confident in and out of the classroom.
They attend numerous regional and national dance clinics and conventions throughout the year to advance their skills and bring our students the latest in dance, technique, and stretching.
We are certified in Acrobatic Arts for our Acro program to provide instruction safely to all dancers.
For the 2025/2026 dance year, we will be adding new classes and seeking additional teachers in the areas of Ballet/Technique, Acro and Hip Hop, as well as Recreational and Competition Instructors. We are also looking for sub teachers. For information on teaching positions, please contact: shelly@arabesquedanceschool.com.
