Did
you know that there is NO REGULATION of the
dance studio industry at all? Anybody can
own a dance studio - no qualifications or
regulations are necessary.
As a result, many dance studios are staffed
by unqualified faculty and directors.
The
National Registry of Dance Educators (NRDE)
was founded in 1996 to provide the community
with the highest quality programs and training
in dance education. Primarily, the goals of
the NRDE are 1) to identify professional dance
educators by offering rigorous evaluations
to determine whether they meet professional
ethics, guidelines, and standards of practice;
and 2) to recognize those who meet specified
criteria as Registered Dance Educators
(RDE). Audrey
Dascomb RDE, Director and primary educator
at Dance Expressions Unlimited, is the ONLY
Registered Dance Educator in MA & NH,
and one of only 40 worldwide.
Dascomb earned the title of Registered
Dance Educator in 1996 based on superior curricula,
teaching methods, style, content, technique,
safety, aptitude and ability.

We
realize you have a choice between many different
dance studios.
All studios are NOT the same - much like doctors, lawyers, school teachers,
and other professionals.
As a parent I always seek out the best
professionals for my family based on credentials,
experience, values and rapport. I
search for the best possible match in every
genre because I know that even with professionals,
there are some who barely pass and those who
excel.
