Fayetteville's Premiere Majorette & Hip Hop Dance Team
About Us:
The Studio
Here at the Elegant Emeralds Dance Studio we believe that every child should be nurtured into a great dance experience. Through these movements, students will develop a passion and love for the art.
We offer multiple styles of dance. Each genre will encourage confidence, technical movements, endurance, but most all a fun experience.
We are conveniently located at 3319 Raeford Road Suite E next to Southern Coals. Easily accessible via the All American freeway.
