Learn About Shooting Stars
Shooting Stars (SSD) has been established for 30 years. Formally known as Joan Crawford, we took on the name Shooting Stars in 2002. The studio itself started in an 800 square foot studio and now is operating from a 10,000 square foot, state of the art facility. The studio now has 3 large dance rooms, a work study room and operates with sprung floors, TV monitors to watch your child’s classes, as well as viewing windows.
The Federation of Dance has ranked our studio as one of the top 50 in the nation! We have been winning National Championships since 1995.
It is our goal to encourage your child’s love of dance. From our youngest dancers to our graduating seniors, every dancer matters and is valued at our studio. We want to inspire, motivate, and challenge them to reach their full potential both in dance and in life. From teaching young dancers basic movements, to challenging our most advanced dancers. We strive to encourage everyone to work towards being the best they can be!
It’s our goal to encourage our dancers at all levels to reach for the stars and to achieve all that God has planned for them. Whatever their goal is, we can help them reach it!
