Sullivan Dance Centre was established in 1952 by Robert D. Sullivan and is the oldest existing school for dance education in Charlotte. It was owned and operated by his wife Fran Sullivan from the late 1970’s until 2005, and is now owned and operated by the Sullivans’ daughter, Melanie Sullivan Coyle. The Sullivan Dance Centre has been family owned and operated for over 54 years, spanning three generations of dance educators and professional dancers.
Philosophy
At Sullivan Dance Centre we strive to provide classic dance education focusing on proper technique and artistry. We provide a conservatory mentality for training with a small studio approach to developing self confidence, poise, discipline, and character. It is our view that dance training is far more than developing professional performers. The skills taken from a solid dance education will give valuable life skills to our young dancers. We focus on the unique aspects of each student’s gifts providing individual attention to assisting each child in achieving their full potential.
