Letter from the Directors

Dance has been a massive part of our lives for as long as we can remember. Through every step of our journey - from first stepping foot into a dance studio, to instructing and choreographing nation-wide - our passion for this art form has become further ingrained in our lives. Dance is far more than movement; it is an outlet, a community, a safe place to land. It inspires hope when we need it most and challenges us to push beyond our limits. Throughout the years we have been mentored by some truly inspiring people in the dance community, and now it is our turn to give back.

The creation of Roots Studios in 2019 was fueled by our desire to provide well-rounded dance training in a welcoming and encouraging community for dancers of all backgrounds and aspirations. Our hope is to create an environment that helps leave the same indelible mark on our students’ souls as dance has left on ours.

This is our heart. This is our passion. These are our roots.
