Q&A

with Teresa Crye Owner, Dublin Dance Centre & Gymnastics

  • How has your family contributed to your success?
  • “This is absolutely a family-run business. And, even if not by blood, many of our staff are adopted family! We truly count on them all! It is a blessing to have a strong-knit family willing to help you; a rarity to have family you love to work with on a daily basis. It can be challenging, but I wouldn’t have it any other way!”
  • What have been some of the biggest challenges of the past 25 years?
  • “Our challenges have only made us better. The level of our staff and programming change for the better through our challenges. When we hit a bump, we make sure to come out better than before. The challenges keep us from getting stagnant and keep us focused on our purpose. Recently our challenges have been the change over to our web-based system, but the sweat and frustration is going to be better for our families and better for us. We’ll be able to spend more time on our students and less time on paperwork once everything is rolling. Right now we are feeling a challenge in our facility. We want to be under one roof. The advantages are countless. We are going to make it happen!”
  • What excites you the most about the future of the studio?
  • “Several things…the caliber of training we are able to provide, the continued diversity of our programs, launching our Special Needs program, and continuing to be a really positive place for kids. Also, opening the Bonnie Lavric Theater and seeing the opportunities it will provide for our students!”
  • What is unique about DDC&G vs. other competitors in the area?
  • “We approach dance as an art form, for any level and for any body type. We give our students the ability to express dance as an art with technique as the tools, not the outcome. Your heart is more important in your moves versus the height of your leap.”
  • What would you like potential parents and students to know about DDC&G?
  • “There is a place for your child here! Whether it’s once-a-week for the fun and physical/mental challenge of it, or for the student who has identified dance as their passion. Everyone is welcome and accepted and encouraged here. “
  • What is your goal for the next 25 years?
  • “I want to watch DDC&G continue to flourish. There will be a new person in that time; someone with fresh dedication to our core values. I am going to see us into a new facility and open the Bonnie Lavric Theater. Then watch from retirement as it continues to inspire students and provide an outlet for professional artists and teachers.”
