About this studio
American Academy of Dance (AAD) is a dance studio located about 20 minutes north of Nashville, Tennessee, built around the philosophy that "Where Stars are born." The studio serves the full range of dancers — recreational students, aspiring dance-team members, competitive dancers, and those pursuing a professional career — with a stated vision of nurturing each dancer's unique journey so they can thrive and reach their fullest potential. Programming spans ballet, tap, hip hop, tumbling/acro, technique (turns, leaps, stretch and strength), and competitive company/team tracks, with classes organized by age from Parent & Me (ages 0-2) through Individual Classes (ages 8 and up). Families and students repeatedly describe AAD as a "second home" with a family-like, supportive atmosphere that emphasizes hard work, goal-setting, and strong relationships alongside technical training.
