Dance studio opens in Woy Woy

A new dance studio has opened in Mutu St, Woy Woy.

The Dancinality studio, run by owner and operator Ms Kristie Smee, caters to around 200 students.

The studio will be open Monday to Friday after school hours, and Saturday mornings.

Five teachers, including Ms Smee, teach with Dancinality.

"One teaches singing, one teaches Latin Salsa and two of the others teach variations of dance styles," Ms Smee said.

"Being a dance teacher always been dream."

The first Dancinality branch opened at Pt Claire in 2002 and catered for 65 students.

The following year a second branch was opened in Ettalong.

"As attendance grew, we moved to two shops in Umina where we stayed for three years," Ms Smee said.

Ms Smee said Dancinality still operated at Pt Clare, and will also be opening at Kariong in the future.

The school is family based, with Ms Smee's mother running the office side of the business, and her father doing the renovations on the new Mutu St studio.
