WELCOME
If you've found your way here, hopefully, you've been looking for inspiration on living your life with power, purpose and in the fullest and most present way possible. We hope to support you as you explore your imagination and individuality within the performing arts. Within that journey, we hope you find the grace and compassion to love yourself at every age and stage as you travel within your own amused life.
“I think everything in life is art. What you do. How you dress. The way you love someone, and how you talk. Your smile and your personality. What you believe in, and all your dreams. The way you drink your tea. How you decorate your home. Or party. Your grocery list. The food you make. How your writing looks. And the way you feel. Life is art.”
― Helena Bonham Carter

DANCE CLASSES WITH ANNA
"If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution." - Emma Goldman
About Anna Maria Terlinden Rogers
After studying various techniques for teaching adults of all levels, Anna is opening her studio with more knowledge and insight than ever, so that all bodies can take a spot on the dance floor and connect. Her only focus is on adults, emphasizing women who have always wanted to dance and never had the chance to or who used to dance when they were kids and miss it terribly. She wants you to know you can find your place on the dancefloor, even inside a bigger body and she honors every person who takes the risk to walk into a dance studio...even if it's not this one! No matter where you find your dance home, hopefully, you'll find people who are ready, welcoming, and deeply glad you showed up.
