Meet Miss Marie 

I  am a Florida Native and have here in South Florida since I can  remember. Most of my childhood memories are filled with happy  adventures, building tree houses and simple games like hopscotch on a  summer day. I am happy to have grown up without the technologies of  today. I was the popular sweet kid on the block. I always had a group of  friends surrounding me and made sure my grades in school were topnotch.  I loved going to school so much!  I  stepped into my first dance class in my freshman year and my heart  exploded.  Little did I know that dance was going to completely  transform my life. I would run to my dance class everyday and was the  first one ready to warm up. I would practice all day long and began to  make up my own dances.I thought my dream was crushed until my sophomore  year during my English class the entire class had to go out and find an  internship for our dream job. This was the best news and I found my home  studio Ballet Elite Dance Studio in 2004. I  found my happy place! I got dance related jobs all over South Florida  and taught inside schools and community centers. I have even taught at  dance festivals in New York. I  teach and inspire my cast members to become leaders by channeling their  energy into in a positive way through dance, music and theatre. The  objective of the program is to help children build confidence, encourage  emotions, maximize potential and teach stage and theatrical education.
