Caroline Roberts

Founder & Managing Director

Caroline Roberts began dancing at the age of three and her toe-tapping feet haven't stopped since. She has studied various forms of dance, including ballet, tap, liturgical, jazz, and hip hop. She began teaching at the age of 16 and has trained with Shirley Mcphail, Dance Associates, Austin Contemporary Ballet, Ballet Austin, and Ballet Academy East in New York City. Mrs. Roberts opened her own studio in 2004 where she taught dance classes to ages 2 through adult. Her studio also provided after-school lessons, summer dance camps, and trained four competitive dance teams. Those teams went on to compete nationally in Las Vegas, Nevada, and placed first for three consecutive years. During this time, Mrs. Roberts was certified by A.I.S.D. to give the Physical Education Waiver. Through her studio, students who took five hours of classes a week and kept a food and nutrition journal were given credit for their physical education requirements. Mrs. Roberts has also done choralography for high-school students in Austin and the surrounding areas and taught the Hays High School marching band and color guard. 

Mrs. Roberts has choreographed a number of shows including:  

  • The Wizard of Oz
