Promoting
Dance excellence
The Studio is designed to extend to children and adults the benefits that can be derived
from an educational and professional dance program. Dance is the most physically and
mentally demanding subject within the arts. We strive to instill in our students the knowledge of
dance technique, feeling of movement and the emotional qualities required for the art of dance.

2022 Model Student of the Year

Chloe Westmoreland
My name is Chloe Westmoreland and I am the recipient for the 2022-2023 Model Student Award from Surry County Dance Center. I grew up in Mount Airy and am a rising senior at North Surry High School. I began dancing at the age of 4 at the Surry Arts Council. At the age 5 I joined the Surry County Dance Center and have been there ever since…
"Surry County Dance Studio is our dance family and we wouldn’t have it any other way! We were fortunate to join Carroll County Dance Center nearly 10 years ago, coming from another similar studio, and we have never looked back. Our daughters have been dancing with Mrs. Kelly since they were three years old, first in Carroll County and now at the Surry County Dance Studio. We spent 2 years traveling from Mt. Airy to Carroll County just to take dance from Mrs. Kelly, Miss Brittany, and Mrs. Brenda. Our girls were ecstatic to find out in 2021 that they were expanding locally. This studio has fueled their love for dance and given them so many opportunities to enhance their skills, participate in community events, and perform for many different groups of people. The supportive and family oriented atmosphere, the outstanding teachers and choreographers and the opportunities you provide your students through performances and community events in a fun and exciting atmosphere make SCDC unique. All of the instructors are professionally trained, yet provide an energetic atmosphere that students love. Thank you, Mrs. Kelly, Miss Brittany, Mrs. Brenda and all the staff at SCDC, for everything you do to spread your love of dance and the lasting relationships you build every day!"

"Nahla had the most amazing year last season at SCDC! She progressed in technique and her self-confidence grew. Recital really showcased her vast improvements in her solo and group performances. The studio environment was always instructional, positive, fun and professional at all times. The expansion of the studio this past year has vastly improved the learning opportunities. The staff is always supportive and always provides each student an opportunity to grow and learn. They always have time for my questions and concerns as well. Nahla is so excited for this upcoming season and I can’t wait to see her grow and learn in dance as I feel it will help her grow and learn in all aspects of life."
Nahla’s Family
"We found Surry County Dance Center in 2021. Prior to that we had been with the same dance studio for six years. Like many other businesses, they had to close during the pandemic and did not have the resources to reopen. We were devastated and desperate to find another dance studio.
We were looking for a place that could provide professional instruction, a variety of dance classes, and an environment that would instill poise, grace and confidence. We found all of that and more in Surry County Dance Center. The teachers deliver top notch instruction and work hard to develop the technique and talent in each dancer. We have been very pleased with the combination of education, technique and fun that each class provides. I highly recommend Surry County Dance Center for all dancers from beginners to advanced!"
