Miss Becky Thayer, Owner/Instructor Born with a passion for dance, she was enrolled in classes with Karen's School of Dance in St. Croix Falls, WI at the age of four, and has never looked back. In addition to her instruction with Karen Hansen's studio throughout her high school years, she became a member of the SCF Saints Pom and Dance Team, holding the position of Team Captain for two years. Her undeniable love for the art began to draw the attention of local teachers and coaches and she was chosen to choreograph several school plays, choir events and dance line routines. Following High School, she studied for a short period of time at Spotlight Dance Studio in Stillwater, MN as well as teaching dance at a local daycare before she left for college. It was always her dream to open a dance studio of her own and after a few years in the workforce she had decided there was no reason to wait. Becky's School of Dance opened its door in 2001 with 35 students and has grown rapidly ever since. Miss Becky continues to attend yearly trainings and workshops in an effort to stay current with new dance trends, and to improve both her program and her stills as a dancer. She is currently studying with Miss Cathy Jones wolf in the Cecchetti Theory of Ballet. It is her hope that her passion for dance and her love for her students makes a lasting impression on those who study with her. |
