About Me

Welcome to the ultimate guide for dance moms, from someone who's truly been in your dance shoes!

I’m thrilled you’ve stopped by. My name is Wendy, and for me, the world of dance isn't just a hobby—it's a lifelong passion. I've spent over 40 years as a dancer, and for the past 30 years, I've channeled that experience into being a dance teacher and choreographer. I’ve lived the early mornings, the late rehearsals, the thrill of the stage, and the sweat that goes into a perfect performance.

Now, the dance world has come full circle for me: I'm also a competitive dance mom to two incredible girls! This dual perspective—veteran dancer/teacher and current dance mom—gives me a unique lens on the chaos, the commitment, and the sheer joy of the competitive circuit.

This blog is where I bring all that knowledge together. You'll find insider tips on everything from studio etiquette to costume emergencies. Plus, I'm constantly testing and reviewing dance products—from tights to tap shoes and hairspray to equipment—to cut through the noise and share which ones are genuinely worth your time and money.

Think of me as your seasoned guide, here to help you navigate the exhilarating, exhausting, and wonderfully rewarding journey of being a dance parent. Let's make this dance season the best one yet!
