Donna Blanchard

Donna began training at the age of 5 and decided then that dance would be her future. She studied ballet (RAD), tap and jazz in London, England and Toronto, Canada and was pursuing a dance degree in Long Beach, California when she began teaching at The Dance Co. In 1983 she became co-owner of The Dance Co. and has been teaching and directing ever since. She has developed an outstanding program that trains the very young dancer in technique, musicality and artistry in a safe and encouraging environment. As they grow, students build on their love of dance and study with award winning choreographers in a variety of challenging and inspiring classes. Dance recitals, workshops, competitions, and community performances are part of The Dance Co. yearly events giving everyone a chance to perform. With 25 years experience in the community, she is proud to have brought dance into the lives of so many.
