About "The Dance Resource"

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide an invaluable online resource to dancers and people in the dance industry by creating a community that shares knowledge and ideas freely to inspire and encourage the love of dance in all who visit.

By becoming part of the community, you become part of our family and together we have the ability to provide the strong foundation for excellence in dance.

Why We Started the Company

As a lifelong professional dancer, Christine Roehrich-Robinson, has long seen the value of dance education for the art of dance itself but also for the discipline it teaches; the hard work it instills; the sense of achievement it creates; the poise and grace it provides; the strength and balance it brings; the bonds of friendship that develop; and the inner glow called self esteem that grows from improvement.

A question that seemed to constantly pop up was, "can you recommend a good dance studio?" As time went on and friends moved further and further afield, the question became harder and harder to answer. That's where the idea for this website came from and that's been the question driving how this site works and will continue to grow.

Dance can be a very competitive area, but by sharing knowledge and being honest about ourselves, our abilities and our studio style, we can promote the benefits of dance and make for a much more enjoyable experience for all. Our dream is to inspire young dancers to follow their dreams but not get burned out and disheartened along the way by aggressive dance programs that push too hard too soon and remove the fun learning experience and possibly extinguish those flames of inspiration completely.

As members of "The Dance Resource" we encourage you to share your thoughts and ideas. Give each other positive encouragement and accept peoples differences in style and attitude towards dance.

Go out there and have fun and remember why you started dancing in the first place and why you're still dancing now.
