Empowering students to find their rhythm in life
Our Story
On Your Toes Dance Academy has been a beacon of excellence in dance education for over 29 years, offering a unique blend of expertise, passion, and legacy. Our founder, Alina Guerrero-Pena, has not only produced full-length ballet stories but has also instilled a love for dance in generations of students. Established in 1995, our academy was formed to provide children with the most important fundamentals of dance education. Although we want our students to enjoy their classes, we are more about learning lifelong skills such as self-respect, discipline, confidence, and hard work.
