was established in 1997

by the Director

Keri L. McLean

Studio Philosophy

The State Of The Arts Studio philosophy is based on the belief that to acquire a developed understanding of dance, and the proper technique on which to safely build an individual style, the student must have a strong, thorough and disciplined education.  Beyond that a student’s enjoyment and confidence rank as the highest priority.  At State Of The Arts we think that a student should leave his or her class each week with a personal sense of accomplishment, the self-discipline to practice and perfect what they know, and the motivation to learn more.
