Meet our Teachers:
Courtney Reilly
Ms. Courtney has been sharing her love and knowledge of dance for over 30 years. Her mission is to inspire and motivate in a positive loving manner, showing each child's attention, patience, and understanding.
Being an Atlanta native, her study of dance began in the ATL at a young age being trained in ballet, tap, jazz, and contemporary. She continued her love for dance by studying dance arts at Brenau College, trained with the Gainesville Ballet Company, and later owned her own studio in Brookhaven for over ten years. With over 30 years of experience, it's hard to mention every accomplishment, but her favorite moments were performing with Rudolf Nureyev and the Boston Ballet, ClubMed entertainer, and cheering professionally for the Atlanta Falcons for eight years. Go Falcons!
Courtney spends her free time with her husband, four daughters, and four dogs.
ANari Terry
Anari has been dancing for 9 years, 5 professionally. Having the opportunity to grace the stage with many industry artists and choreographers. Whilst recently adding pro-NBA dance team experience to her resume, she continues to train in all styles.
Anari has always had a love for working with children. She found that assisting them progress through milestones, while teaching her greatest passion, is something she’d like to continue doing for as long as possible. She has a current residency in the mobile dance company Creative Movement and Dance. Teaching at many locations including churches and after-school programs. Alongside her dream to teach, Anari also has a passion for choreographing. She hopes to one day do so overseas and eventually settle down as a studio owner.
