We know that selecting an extra cirricular activity for you or your child can sometimes be difficult with all the choices out there. We consider it an honor that we have been entrusted with the opportunity to teach your children and we hold ourselves accountable for all that we do to help enrich, enlighten and encourage each dancer.
We offer quality dance instruction by an exceptional staff in a safe nurturing environment. The studio is unlike any dance studio in it's area simply offering dance instruction and an appreciation for the art of dance, it is also one that is positive, an encouraging environment that instills a standard of excellence in all its students.
Brenda Wolfe (Owner & Artistic Director):
Brenda started out on the East Coast as a dancer, studying in Boston, New York, and Rhode Island, fueling her passion studying dance under choreographers dancing Broadway style. As a child she participated in Kaleidoscope Theater, and was crowned Miss Rhode Island in 1984. Once on the West Coast Brenda launched Leap Of Faith Dance inside Living Word Bible Church and taught there for 8 1/2 years. After all of the classes had a waiting list in 2007. she expanded to her present location in Gilbert.
While waiting to offer multiple styles of dance, Brenda knew she couldn't handle the load herself. As a result she has an amazing group of instructors and she gives them immeasurable credit for the thriving success of her studio.
With such an amazing team behind her, Brenda is proud of the great things happening at her dance studio.
A unique part of Leap Of Faith Dance are the Christian influences that inspire everything, down to the costumes and song choices. There are no revealing outfits or unappropriate music. Leap Of Faith recently has been awarded the best costume in the Hall of Fame Dance Competition!
