Melva Smith School Of Dance

I still go to Melva Smith. This year will be my 12th year of dance at Melva's studio. Everyone is so friendly and have become my second family, and home! You must sign up!

My daughter studied at this school for eight years. She had an excellent experience with good schooling in the basics as well as advanced techniques. My only concern is that students interested in being in on the competitive teams spend a very large amount of time dancing on a weekly basis - 10-15 hours for elementary students, more for older students. You need to know what you're getting into if you decide to participate in competitions.

This small dance studio in Richardson, and its wonderful teachers, is a delight. My two kids have danced with Melva for 11 years taking ballet, tap, pointe, jazz, hip hop and lyrical. Miss Melva herself teaches both the "little bitties" and the most advanced students. She is so calm and patient with the little ones. This is a fun place to learn dance - no competitions, or teams. Everyone shines at Miss Melva's.
