Ashley began dancing at the age of 7 where she grew up training in ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, pointe, modern, hip hop, and contemporary. Ashley's favorite style of dance is pointe. She also danced competitively and received many high awards in various styles of dances. Ashley owes all her dance credibility to her own dance teacher, Stephanie Duncan. There she learned her love for dance and her desire to teach dance as well. She has taught all styles of dance for over 20+ years to all ages here in the CSRA. Her passion is to teach dance to all ages and to share her love of dance.
When not teaching dance, Ashley enjoys spending time with her husband, Dustin, and their three children. She enjoys spending time outdoors, reading a good book, and spending time with her family.
Jasmine is a self taught dancer who practiced pirouettes in her living room until she spun a hole in the carpet! Her mother soon enrolled her into Summerlin Dance Academy in Las Vegas, Nevada at the age of 9 where she discovered her true passion for dance. After moving away from her hometown, she immediately continued to fan the flames of her passion at Kane and Co. Dance Productions, where she trained for 7 years. Jasmine spent 4 of these years in competitive dance where she discovered her love for performing on stage. At 17, she founded and coached her own high school dance team. Jasmine is a widely experienced choreographer trained in contemporary, hip hop, jazz and ballet.
Jasmine’s goal as a choreography is to instill confidence in her students and pass her love for dance onto them while encouraging them to explore their versatility and creativity.
