Meet Our Team

Despina Rossi

Amazing teachers and welcoming environment. Miss Nicole and her crew have a true love for dance and sharing their passion.

Colleen Milam

My three year old daughter has been taking dance classes this season and loving it! Her teachers are so wonderful and have so much patience. Can't wait to see her recital this spring.

Our Leaders.

Nicole Warner

Owner & CEO.

Enjoys spending time with family. As a dance-mom she loves watching her daughter grow up in the studio that she did. When Miss Nicole is not dancing she loves playing games and doing science.

Mary Lou Behrends

Artistic Director.

Miss Mary Lou has been a dance teacher for over 20 years. When she is not in the studio, she enjoys watching Dancing with the Stars & spending time with her family.

Our Teachers.

At West End Academy of Dance, our faculty are more than just instructors – they're dedicated mentors who genuinely care about the development of every dancer. With a shared passion for teaching and a nurturing approach, they empower students to embrace their creativity, build confidence, and discover the joy of dance in a positive and supportive setting."
