Mission Statement
Carroll County Dance Center was founded in August of 1997 and is located in Hillsville VA. The company expanded to Mount Airy, NC, by opening Surry County Dance Center, in August of 2021. Through this expansion, KMG Ensemble was created and is the franchise umbrella that houses both studios. Since 1997, we have been educating young people in the art of dance.
At both the Carroll County Dance Center and the Surry County Dance Center, we have one true goal – to provide a nurturing, fun and safe environment for all to practice their craft. We aim to offer options for families to find activities that are geared toward keeping their children active and learning.
The classes our staff provides are about the betterment of oneself. We believe, wholeheartedly, that the greatest importance for every student is that their best efforts are met with encouragement, positivity, and proper instruction.
We inspire confidence.We encourage fun.
We stress inclusivity.
It is our hope that when students leave our program, they will have developed a stronger character, an excellent background in dance, and a special love and confidence of the individual beauty within them.
