Founded in March 2014 by Alyse Keyser, the studio was built for dancers who want serious training from certified and professional teachers without pressure to live at the studio. Students can take one class a week or seven, and different tracks and programs let dancers develop at a pace suited to them. The mission focuses on three goals: introducing each student to the art of dance, instructing them in proper body movement, coordination, and alignment, and inspiring them to excel in dance and life.

The faculty includes Studio Manager and Petite/Mini Company Director Gisella McCallion, a Sacred Heart University graduate who trained at East Pointe Dance and City Center Dance and has performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and Barclays Center, along with instructors such as Jessica Jhingoor, who began her training at Windwood Hill Dance Academy in Pennsylvania. Competition team members take required classes in hip hop, ballet, acro, and jazz or musical theater, with limited absences permitted per semester. Studio hours run six days a week, with classes offered afternoons and evenings Monday through Friday, mornings on Tuesday, and Saturday hours, while Sunday is closed.

The studio's perfect rating reflects its standing among the most highly regarded dance programs serving Rye and the surrounding Westchester communities.
