Our School
Belle Academy of Dance was formerly known as CLB Dance Academy which was owned and directed from 1990-2005 by Connie Bracey, with assistance from manager Kay Ferris, 1998-2005. Upon Ms. Bracey’s decision to relinquish her ownership of the studio, Ms. Ferris chose to carry on the business as Belle Academy of Dance, LLC in August, 2005.
Ms. Ferris and the staff of instructors are dedicated to carrying on the studio’s rich tradition of high-quality dance instruction, a disciplined yet fun and caring atmosphere, creative, age-appropriate, professional performances, and a well-organized, efficient business.
