Director's Welcome

Ryan McMullen
 
 

It is with much pleasure to welcome you to the dance community at Louisburg College!

At Louisburg College, we strive to create a specialized experience for each dancer. We elevate your dance technique by training in a wide variety of styles and movements to make a well-rounded dancer. During your time at Louisburg, you will be a part of an intimate program and supportive community where dancers receive one-on-one time with their instructor.  The performance and choreographic opportunities at Louisburg College are unlike any other dance program. Because Louisburg College is a junior college, it features students in multiple performances as a freshman and sophomore! The college cares about your future and your goals beyond Louisburg College. Whether you want to perform for a dance team or become a dance major, we bridge the gap for you by preparing for your next journey.

We are so thrilled to have you be a part of the Louisburg College Family!

 

Kind Regards,
