Stephanie Rhoden
Studio Director tap program director
Meet the woman who keeps the lights on, the floors clean, and the tap shoes clicking. Our fearless Studio Director.
She teaches tap and modern with the precision of a metronome and the energy of a sparkly hurricane in tap shoes. Her classes are known for being tough, focused, and full of heart... Even if her sentences sometimes come out in dramatic hand motions and sound effects..... Trust us, the kids get it.If there’s a problem, she’s already handling it. If there’s a bill, she’s already paid it. If there’s drama.... Well, she’s got choreography for that too.She’s the glue, the boss, the bill-payer, the rhythm-maker, and the reason we haven’t accidentally turned the studio into a flash mob of chaos.Just know this: if you get a meeting with her, bring notes and your A-game. She doesn’t suffer fools, doesn’t miss a beat, and she definitely doesn’t have time for nonsense, unless it’s well-rehearsed and stage-ready.We don’t know how she does it all. We’re just glad she does.And no, you can't borrow her tap shoes.
