Dothan School of Dance concludes its ten-month season with an end of year recital held at the Dothan Civic Center. This special event serves as a celebration of our students’ growth, dedication, and artistry. Participation in the recital is strongly encouraged, as it provides dancers with valuable stage experience and helps build confidence in performance.
Important Dates:

We look forward to showcasing the hard work of our dancers and celebrating a successful season with family and friends.
Since 1976, Dothan School of Dance, led by Tracy Solomon and Ashlie Wells, has been dedicated to providing exceptional, progressive dance training for students of all ages. Our goal is to help each dancer strengthen both body and mind while cultivating a lifelong love for the art of dance.
For over four decades, we have proudly served Dothan and the surrounding communities with the highest standard of instruction. From our introductory Creative Movement classes to the most advanced levels, students gain a strong foundation in proper technique, dance terminology, and performance skills.
Beyond technical skill, our curriculum is designed to foster discipline, focus, creativity, and teamwork—qualities that benefit students both in and out of the studio. Dance training enhances physical awareness, posture, poise, coordination, and artistic expression, all while offering the joy of movement. Whether pursuing dance professionally or recreationally, our students develop confidence, self-esteem, and a deep appreciation for this beautiful art form.
At Dothan School of Dance we believe dance training is life training – building discipline, confidence, and character. With joy and purpose, we nurture each dancer to reach their fullest potential, striving for excellence in the studio and beyond.
