 TDH’s First Breaking Jam Was a Huge Success! 

Breakin Jam 2025

What an incredible event! TDH hosted its very first Breaking Jam, and the energy was off the charts! 

Check out the video here!

Dancers from all backgrounds came together to battle in the most fun, encouraging, and positive atmosphere. The breaking culture is all about respect, community, and pure joy, and we saw it all in action today. Even our littlest breakers got on the floor, experiencing what it’s like to dance in front of the pros!

A huge shoutout to our amazing instructors B-boy Skeletor (Victor) and B-girl Chachara (Xiomara) for leading this event and bringing their expertise to TDH. Because of their influence, Hudson is now on the map for breaking culture!


Our Competition Ladies Performed in their FIRST Competition this weekend! 

TDH Takes the Stage at Our First-Ever Competition!

This past weekend, our four dancers took the stage for The Dancing House’s first-ever competition, and we could not be prouder! Both duets and solos earned High Golds, but beyond the awards, they demonstrated incredible growth, dedication, and sportsmanship. Since beginning these routines in September, they have made tremendous strides in technique, confidence, and performance quality. More importantly, they fully embraced the competition experience—learning, growing, supporting each other, and connecting with the dance community. It was an inspiring weekend, and we can't wait for what’s next! 🌟✨

It's Rainbow Dress Up Week at TDH March 24 - 29

Who doesn’t love a reason to wear all the colors of the rainbow!  What a way to bring some color into the studio just before spring starts springing!


Celebrating 20 Years of The Phipps Dance Company!

IMG_9386Did you know that Ms. Melissa taught dance at The Phipps for 13 years before founding The Dancing House? During her time there, she and her colleague Barb Suick co-founded The Phipps Dance Company (TPDC), creating a space for dancers to take their training to the next level.

This weekend, TPDC is celebrating its 20th season, and to commemorate the milestone, Melissa and Barb were invited back to stage a piece for the concert. Ms. Melissa choreographed a musical theatre jazz piece to "Hernando’s Hideaway," bringing her signature style back to the stage.

How exciting to reconnect with TPDC and see the vision we had 20 years ago still thriving!

Is Your Dancer Wanting More? 

Consider private lessons.  They are a great way to double down on the work they learn in class and go further faster.  Work on technique, focus on turns or leaps or clean that solo for competition!  You'll leave the studio stronger and even more confident!
And private lessons are available at any age!

It didn’t take us long to realize this was the studio for us. Ms. Melissa is all around awesome and my young daughter loves dance class. I love that you can make up session if you get sick and don’t lose out. I also love the 6 week session that we could drop out or pause if needed. I doubt we will ever pause dance, but nice to know we can 😊
