ELEVATION & CONQUERING DREAMS!!!

Dancing is a movement that increases self-esteem, confidence and goals in life. Many do it for the enjoyment, extra hobby, or making it a career. When your mindset is prepared to accept the next phase of dance that involves hard work, preparation and determination anything is possible. We were excited to prepare two teams for an experience of a lifetime for:


When you are given opportunities you cannot waste time on negative thoughts. You have to grab that moment and take it.

Our Performance Art Company should be honored and thankful that they had the privilege of performing nine dance pieces at Disney!

Excerpt from Maplewood Patch
Springfield Avenue Gets a New Dance Studio
An established performance studio, LaChaney's Dance & Music Academy, makes the move from Union to Maplewood.

By Sonya Kimble-Ellis

Students, family, friends and several township officials joined Lashonda Chaney Saturday afternoon at the grand opening of LaChaney’s Dance & Music Academy at 1747 Springfield Avenue.

Previously located on Morris Avenue in Union for the past eight years, Chaney opened her new Maplewood location in early June — filling a very visible vacancy at the former WaMu Bank site.

“We’re a one-stop shop for families,” said Chaney. “Our studio is perfect for parents trying to find something for each of their kids and maybe for themselves. The fact that we offer more than one program is a great thing for families.”

Chaney’s studio offers classes in karate, dance, music, gymnastics and fitness. Also available is the opportunity for youngsters to participate in the LaChaney All Stars competitive cheerleading team. In addition, the studio provides tutoring, aftercare and an after-school program.

APOLLO AUDITIONS 4.3.11




We are not just a dance school but we are a family. We speak life into all of our dancers, teachers, staff and parents. We have a Performance Arts Company that lives, speaks and eat dance. Our director, teachers and staff are dedicated to this art form called "Dance."

Our director wanted our Performance Arts Company to audition for Apollo Amatuer Night Show. Like, always there were no complaints only excitement. One thing that truly sticks out is that our Company members Do Not showcase intimidation. Our Company Members just enjoy dancing and the light was shining on them on Sunday.

Even though it was very early in the morning (5am.) Our blood was pumping because we claimed victory. The audition called for the first 300 acts and we knew that we were making it. We entered five acts and it was an amazing experience.

We are featured online and in print of the NY Daily News (4.5.11)
