✨ 10 YEARS OF DANCE NATION ✨

Throwing it back to one of those routines that will forever hold a special place in our hearts. In 2018, our hip-hop dancers took the stage at Showstopper Nationals with “Scars to Your Beautiful” by Alessia Cara—and brought home 1st Place!🏆

Beyond the trophy, this routine carried such a powerful message: you are beautiful exactly as you are. A reminder to love yourself, embrace your individuality, and reject the impossible standards the world sometimes puts on us.

Years later, the message still hits just as hard. What a beautiful piece of Dance Nation history.: 1st Place • Showstopper Nationals 2018 • Scars to Your Beautiful 💖

1st Place • Nationals • Teen • Hip Hop Choreographed by Tricia Da...

✨ 10 Years of Dance Nation ✨

Ten years is a LOT of life. 💖

When Dance Nation first opened its doors, Ms. Tricia was simply taking a chance on a dream. But while she was building a studio, she was also building a life. Over the last decade she:

✨ became Mrs. Green
✨ became a mom to Wesley
✨ welcomed Willa into the world

and grew a beautiful family alongside the Dance Nation family she was creating every day. From standing in front of an empty studio before the doors even opened… to standing surrounded by the people she loves most.

Dance Nation has grown.
Ms. Tricia has grown.
And so has the family behind it all.

Here’s to 10 years of dance, dreams, milestones, memories, and a whole lot of LIFE in between!

✨ 10 seasons ago, Ms. Tricia took a chance and opened Dance Nation Studio—a place where every dancer could discover, grow, and let their passion shine. As we celebrate our 10th season, we’ll be sharing throwback moments all year long, looking back on the incredible journey that brought us here.

Today’s throwback takes us back to Opening Day of Season 1. 💖

Entering Season 10 ✨

Ten seasons of first classes, new beginnings, unforgettable performances, hard work, friendships, and countless memories.

Ten seasons of dancers finding their confidence.
Families cheering from the audience.
Teachers pouring their hearts into every class.

Some stayed for years. Some for a season. Every one of you helped shape who we are today. 💖

This isn’t just a celebration of the dancers wearing our colors today.
It’s a celebration of every dancer who has ever walked through our doors.

Every family who trusted us.
Every teacher, volunteer, and staff member who believed in our vision.
Every memory we’ve shared over the past ten seasons.

Whether Dance Nation was part of your story for one year or ten…

Thank you🫶

We are Dance Nation ✨
