Dance is an art! Our mission is to preserve and pass on that art. To instill the sense of expression, beauty and freedom that dance inspires. And to honor the History and traditions that define dance as an art.
Ann's Studio of Dance has taught generations of dancers for over 40 years!

Ann Bergeron is the founder and Artistic Director of Ann's Studio
of Dance which has
served Cheshire County since 1964. She realized her love for children and
instruction of the performing arts at a very young
age. Ann's training began with Sunny Seymour at the age of 5. Growing up, Ann participated
in many local shows in Keene and Surry and was a regular in the Gilsum
Minstrel Shows. In addition to dance
and cheering, Ann did choreography for the High School Drama Club. In 1964 Ann started to teach out of her
parents home on Old Walpole Road and presented her dancers in recitals in Surry
and at
St. Joseph School in Keene. In 1976 the Studio was established as ABC Studio of
Dance on West Street. Ann took classes and exams with "Dance Masters of
America" passing with the highest marks. She also spent several years studying
the Royal Academy Syllabus of Ballet from England and has put students through
the exams. Over the years, Ann and her students have attended many conventions
to further their knowledge of dance, studying with top teachers from around the
world. Ann has had students compete at
competitions taking home Silver and Gold medals. Some of Ann's dancers have gone
on to perform and teach. Ann brings a love and enthusiasm for dance
together with technical dance expertise that creates an unequalled experience
for her students.
