2. What was the inspiration to start or run this business?

Owner, Nicole Aravena, has a long history in dance and the performing arts. She has a true love of teaching dance. She has expanding her business in the last 16 years to include many different forms of dance including hip hop, breakdancing along with ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical and more.

3. What do you love most about your job?

I love seeing my students benefit from taking performing arts classes. The health benefits of dance include building strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, coordination and social skills. Many of our students reap benefits in school as well from discipline, respect, creativity, concentration and confidence.

4. What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?

The best reaction we received from a customer was from a student who not only loved to take dance classes but also wanted to improve her singing and acting skills. Over her 15 years at the studio, she took a variety of dance styles that easily fit into her busy schedule and participating in our mainstage musical. When she graduated high school, she told us how SSSPA was a major part of her life and she left with fond memories and great friendships.
