welcome

Welcome to Creative Minds Dance Studio! We are a competitive dance program offering Hip Hop, Contemporary, Lyrical, and Jazz in all levels. Here we strive to create a fun and positive environment for our students to grow. Our goal is to make a positive impact; to teach our students the art of dance but also experiences they can take with them throughout their lives. We believe dancing is deeper than choreography and technique.

We teach passion, we teach movement.

  • “Alyssa and Alissa have been my #1 supporters ever since I’ve gotten back into dancing. They have been nothing but welcoming and kind. They hold such a big place in my heart. They are such wonderful coaches and have taught me many valuable life lessons and continue to do so. My experience of coming back to dance was as good as it was because of them two. Could not recommend this studio more!”

  • “This studio is amazing! Alissa and Alyssa care so much about each student and their talent. They have created such a great environment for their students to learn and grow."

    Shannon Pace

  • “Alyssa’s an amazing person who really cares about her dancers. Her technical skill and quality choreography is always a hit when it comes to competitions. My girls have been dancing with her for several years and love going to her classes.”

    Jesyca Owen

  • "Creative minds dance studio is amazing! our two girls (11&15) have danced for other studios in the Tri-Cities but none compare to this experience. alyssa and alissa have created a dance atmosphere that focuses on building confidence and using your own creativity to accomplish high level success. their choreography is one of a kind. our girls have gone from being drug to dance practice to voluntarily dancing in our living room after practice. our girls are finally proud of themselves and their teams. they are achieving success through the confidence instilled in them. i highly recommend creative minds dance studio."

  • "from the moment i stepped foot in that studio for tryouts, i could feel the genuine love and positivity radiating from alyssa and alissa. from the very beginning, they have been my biggest supporters, motivating me to achieve more. dance hasn't always been a positive topic for me, but they have completely turned that around. im so grateful for their endless love and talent and for choosing to share it with us."

    Grace Strycker

  • "we absolutely love alyssa and alissa! they are very positive and assertive. the dance instruction is precise and thorough. alyssa is great at getting the work out of the girls while also connecting with them on a personal level. it is the perfect combination of critique and positive reinforcement. alissa does an excellent job with keeping everything organized. she never misses a single detail and sends information far in advance. these ladies both go over and beyond to make each of their students feel special. i cant say enough wonderful things about them and the service that they offer. i feel blessed that my daughter has them in her life."

    Darcie Wiser

  • "creative minds dance studio has been a huge blessing in my daughter's life. in such short time her confidence has increased in ways i never could have imagined. she receives never ending encouragement. mistakes are allowed and turned into a learning experience that strengthens all dancers. alyssa and alissa are amazing with the way they run this studio. they see the unique talents of every dancer. they have created a safe environment and true dance family that promotes growth and unity. i couldn't be happier."

  • Alyssa W. has been such a wonderful dance instructor to my daughter. She has really helped her come out of her shell and improve her dance skills the past two years. Alyssa has unmatched talent for choreography and an ability to work with her students in a fun, yet professional way. Alissa B. is the best dance studio owner/manager. The way she runs the studio is flawless. She is very knowledgeable, always on top of everything, and is very friendly and professional. We love Creative Minds!
