About Us - Studio & Staff
Dance Love Studios
Dance Love Studios was born when Danielle realised that she needed one place to bring all of her classes together. A place where all her adult dancers could feel connected and part of something bigger than the class they attend.
​
A place where other adults could hear about it, and feel like it was something that they could be a part of, too.
​
Dance Love Studios is built on the belief that you can dance at any age, any size, and with any skill level. That dancing is about more than just making shapes - it's about how you feel, what you convey, and how you connect.
​
That fitness is a bonus, not the goal.
That adults deserve a dance studio with classes just for them, where they are supported and celebrated.
​
Welcome to Dance Love Studios.
