Our History

How it all began...

In the spring of 2006, walls were being built, a dance floor installed, teacher's hired, and a desk prepared for a brand new dance studio. The Kolaga family put in countless hours working not only on the building for this future studio but also on the administrative aspects of the business. In July of 2006 Purely Dance opened it's doors to aspiring dancers for the first time. Purely Dance was a small, one room studio in a small out of the way shopping complex, referred to as a hidden treasure by several people. After finishing out the first year with only 21 students, the dream of becoming a studio that can teach and inspire hundreds of young dancers seemed very far off. However, all great things start out small...

Then...

Over the next several several years Purely Dance began to grow. More students came and new teachers were hired but the passion of the staff and dancers never faltered. Purely Dance never lost sight of the dream of inspiring new dancers. Then, the decision was made to expand the small, one room dance studio into something more...

The Move...

In January of 2012, Purely Dance moved to it's current location. The first dance room, the front desk, the lobby, and the dancer lounge areas were built in 10 days through the hard work of the Kolaga family. Purely Dance was then able to open it's brand new doors for the second time. Over the next several months, additional work was done on this new studio and a second room was built. Purely Dance was now a two room dance studio in a larger shopping complex no longer a hidden treasure in the dance world.

Today...

Purely Dance is now thriving with passionate students, teachers, and staff. The addition of a second room has allowed more classes to be opened, giving more students the opportunity to learn. The dream of teaching and inspiring young dancers is still and will always be the aspiration of this studio. Purely Dance is looking forward to a bright, exciting, dance-filled future.
