Meet the Business Owner

Mylie A.

Business Owner

I started taking partner dance classes at Go Dance in 1996 and immediately fell in love with the art/​sport that is dance. Within a couple of months I joined an instructor training class, and within a year I was teaching dance full-​time and loving it. Over the next couple of years I became involved in the administration of the studio, became co-​owner, and then took on full ownership of the studio in 2001.

Dancing has brought many gifts into my life, and watching dance positively impact the lives of others on an ongoing basis is one the the greatest gifts of all. Our mission at Go Dance is to spread the joy of dancing — come check us out and see what gifts dancing has for you!
