[South St Paul, MN] — Rhythm and Shoes Dance Studio has been accepted into the More Than Just Great Dancing!® international affiliation program, aligning the studio with a higher standard of dance instruction and management principles.
More Than Just Great Dancing!® is a community of almost 300 dance studio owners in 5 countries who are committed to providing more than excellent dance instruction. Founded by Misty Lown, owner of Misty’s Dance Unlimited in La Crosse, Wisconsin, the More Than Just Great Dancing!® license is based on the same principles Lown used to grow her own studio that today serves more than 700 dance students and has disbursed more than $135,000 in dance scholarships.
