About us

Focal Point Dance Studios
Amanda Tae
Amanda Tae founded Focal Point Dance Studios in 2005 as a means of bridging the amateur dance world with the professional. From a modest, single studio facility to a now larger, three studio complex, FP has become one of the Nation’s top dance studios. Located just minutes from the Florida’s Turnpike, our facility has 20-foot ceilings, state-of-the-art sound systems, and monitors to watch the classes from the comfort of the front lobby.

FP offers professionally taught classes in Jazz, Hip Hop, Ballet, Lyrical, Tap, Contemporary, and Acrobatics by some of the finest teachers Miami has to offer, as well advanced adult classes for those who still want to pursue their dance education past high school graduation.

From age 3 to the professional, FP combines a fun learning environment with energetic instructors. We also keep class sizes to a minimum, guaranteeing individualized instruction and attention. Master classes and/or Catalyst classes taught by professional dance teachers and choreographers from around the country are also available every week.

Realizing the growing potential of talent in Miami, and yet so few resources to filter them into the professional dance industry, FP brings a fresh new edge to the dance studio concept – training young dancers and providing them with the opportunity to work in the professional environment such as TV, film, and shows. Working with networks such as MTV, BET, Univision, and Telemundo, as well as music recording companies like Universal, EMI, BMI, and Sony, Focal Point conjoins the dance world with the music and commercial industry. You’ve seen our teachers share the stage with Chris Brown, Missy Elliott, Britney Spears, Ciara, Thalia, Ricky Martin, Paulina Rubio, David Bisbal, Olga Tanon, Wisin Y Yandel, and many more.

The professional industry is brought to our doorstep and to your dancer, everyday! Through dance, students at Focal Point learn discipline, good sportsmanship, physical fitness, and responsibility. Utilizing the many outlets dance has to offer, FP continues to take dancers to the next level.
