Spisak Dance Academy was
founded in Wickenburg, in 1960 by Ann Spisak, a professional dancer,
wanting to provide a dance education for her two daughters.
The rest, as they say, is history!
SDA has been educating dancers for 48 years! The recreational
dancer, the career-minded or college bound student, adults wanting
to continue their training and anyone who just wants to dance for
fun - these are the students of Spisak Dance Academy!
The thousands of children that have been in our classes have
achieved personal as well as professional goals. Our former
students are working professionally in every aspect of the
entertainment industry. We are proud of our traditional
curriculum that offers the core dance subjects of ballet, tap, jazz,
and acrobatics, along with the current lyrical , HIP HOP, and
contemporary styles.
The Jataba Dance Troupe, a separate non-profit entity from Spisak
Dance Academy , has produced The Nutcracker Ballet since 1980 and
makes its home at SDA. It provides scholarships to its members
to attend workshops, master classes, national conventions, and
cultural events.
We are now teaching the children and grandchildren of our former
students! From the small, screened-in back porch of the cement
house in Wickenburg, to the 7500 square foot facility we now enjoy,
we are truly blessed to be able to continue to share the love of
dance to all who walk through our doors.
