About the Director...

In October, 2001 Jill Ruff opened the Marietta Dance Academy on Front Street. She shares the joy that dance can bring to students of all ages. During her career as a teacher, Jill is proud of her many students’ successes. Several have gone on to be college cheerleaders, on college dance teams, professional dancers with ballet companies, cruise lines, on Broadway & in off-Broadway productions and several are now dance teachers. Jill sees potential in every student. "Dance training is so much more than just about learning steps & routines. Lifelong lessons are learned in dance class."Jill and her staff look forward to another great year!

It is OUR MISSION to provide quality dance instruction to students of all ages.

• Our professional staff is committed to personal attention.
• It is important to us that children have self respect and respect for others. We help reinforce that through dance. The Marietta Dance Academy’s music, costumes and choreography is always tasteful and age appropriate.
• Our students will enjoy opportunities to perform in fun, well organized recitals and various community events.
• We will maintain a positive, safe and clean environment where students can learn to dance in a friendly, non-competitive atmosphere.

We know that you have many choices in your child’s extracurricular activities.

We invite you to join our school to learn & have fun while building skills and memories that will last a lifetime.
