Staff

The instructors at D’Ette & Co. Dancers are highly skilled dancers who possess the virtues needed to be effective teachers. Our staff has a combined experience of over 75 years teaching. Experience does matter in a quality dance education.

The director and several teachers are members of the Texas Association Teachers of Dancing or other recognized dance organizations.

All faculty members are dedicated to their art and sharing their knowledge. To continue their education and stay up to date with the newest styles and techniques, teachers attend as many dance conventions and classes as possible.

We look forward to sharing our love of dance with you and/or your children.

* Texas Association Teachers of Dancing (TATD) Established in 1930 as an organization of teachers dedicated to keeping the art of dancing and the dance teaching profession on the highest level by upholding its ideals and principles and passing these principles on the next generation of teachers. Membership is by examination only.

The TATD Convention, a four day event, is held annually in June. Our studio faculty and the eligible students (12 years old or going into the 6th grade or older) participate in classes with master teachers from across America. Any student interested in attending should contact D’Ette.
