Class Schedule for Mary Heller Dance Arts


BeMoved® & Gentle Bemoved® Classes for ALL movement abilities.


Yup, that's me in the front, arms out, in drag, performing Tap in Yavapai College's "Hello Dolly" with Toni Tennille
last Nov. 2022. Maintaining my Musical Theatre chops, while supporting the cast I trained weekly in
Tap & Ballet choreography Jan. - Nov. 2022. I was asked by choreographers Pam Cannedy & Stepan Oleksyn to
choreograph two sections, including one three times/nights of the show due to cast members not able to
perform a few shows.
Me as a woman, which I happen to be a she/her, in character as a 1900’s Vaudville Dancer in Yavapai College’s “Singin In the Rain” choreographed by Pam Cannedy & Stepan Oleksyn, Nov. 2023. Pam asked me to choreograph this number. Humbled to be asked to do so.
 
Novice to the professional level classes of the 10 other Dance Disciplines I teach are by request for privates, semi-privates, small groups, or 10 or more people, locally, regionally and nationally – Hip-Hop, Ballet, Modern, Contemporary, Jazz, Tap, Improv, Contact Improv, Fundamentals of Partnering and Creative Movement.

    I’ve been dancing 23 years as an amateur, and I have been super impressed by Mary’s dance and instruction. The quality is only matched by the fun.
