About BALLARE DANCE CENTRE

For those of you that are new and may not know me, my name is Kelly Hodge, and I am the Owner/Director of Ballare Dance Centre. Dance has been a passion and a part of my life since I was 4 years old. Growing up I studied many forms of dance such as tap, ballet, jazz, and lyrical. I was 16 years old when I began teaching tap classes and have been teaching dance for the past 20+ years. Throughout middle school and high school, I was a member of a large competition team that was not only ranked as one of the best teams in California but also in the Nation. I also competed with my own choreographed solos. After high school I went to San Francisco State University to further my dancing career, before graduating from San Jose State University with a degree in Business Management. I learned very early that my calling as a dancer was to share my love and passion for dance with others through teaching and so in 2007, I opened Ballare Dance Centre. I want to make dancing fun for your dancer, as well as give them an outlet to express themselves through movement. In February 2013 my husband Tim and I welcomed our son Joey to our family. Then in February 2018 we welcomed our twin girls, Grace and Addison. They all enjoy visiting the studio and love all the attention they get from our dancers and their families. As we start the 2020 -2021 dance year, I look forward to seeing returning dancers as well as welcoming new dancers into our dance studio/family. I want to personally thank you for coming to Ballare Dance Centre and making it your home!
