In 2006, my then 5 year-old son, Logan, looked up at me after viewing the movie Happy Feet and said, “I want to learn dance like Mumbles!” Fast forward to the year 2010… Logan is now 9 years-old and appearing on stage in New York City at Radio City Music Hall in the world famous Christmas Spectacular.
This is an accomplishment that never would have happened had Logan not been a student at FASCINATING RHYTHM SCHOOL OF PERFORMING ARTS.
When Logan first mentioned his desire to learn to tap, I immediately picked up the phone to contact Kia Crader. I have known Kia personally and professionally for over 25 years and you would be hard pressed to find a finer tap dance instructor anywhere. Fascinating Rhythm is a nurturing studio whose professional staff encourages individuality and creativity in each of its students.
Whether your child is interested in dancing purely for exercise or is seeking a professional career, the foundation they will receive at Fascinating Rhythms will benefit them at every stage of their lives. Dance is an art form which encourages self expression, coordination, creativity and discipline. Logan, thanks to Kia and the entire staff at the studio, will forever be blessed with a life experience which will shape him profoundly.

Kia!
Your studio is one of the loveliest places to be in the Western Hemisphere! You are wonderful and we are here to support and help no matter what! Thank you for your contributions to the Dance world!

Fascinating Rhythm has gorgeous state-of-the-art facilities, an inspired faculty, and a supportive non-competitive environment that all make for an amazing combination for students seeking to study dance. I have loved working with Kia’s students in master classes over the years—they exhibit strong work ethic and a true love and passion for the art they are studying. I first discovered my passion for dance while growing up training with various teachers in Reno. Now I am a professional choreographer, teacher and dancer in New York City and I chose to send my young niece to Kia. Not only is she receiving a strong foundation in her early technique, but she is discovering the same love of the art that I did! She eats, sleeps, and breathes dance. I couldn’t be happier about that. (Thank you Kia!!!)
