Ignite Dance Academy will be opening its doors this fall and offer ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, contemporary, and musical theater for boys and girls age 3-18. A parent tot class will also be offered for ages 1-3. Owner, Allison Banks is a 2023 graduate and has studied dance her whole life. She was a ballerina at the Fort Wayne Ballet, and trained under many world renowned ballet instructors , also studying under Broadway actress/Tony award nominee, Jane Lanier, in musical theater. Allison achieved the top tier pre-professional status at the Fort Wayne Ballet for three years. She shifted her focus in 2021 and left the ballet to attend a 35 time National Champion competition studio. There she fine tuned her contemporary, tap, lyrical, jazz, and musical theater skills through competitions throughout the last two years, keeping up with her ballet skills privately at Grant Training Program in Fort Wayne, IN.
Allison has always dreamed of opening up a studio and sharing her love of dance and creativity to others in a loving, challenging, and positive environment. This dance academy will be one of the three businesses (the other two being CCBanks Productions Dinner Theater and RED Letter Photography) that is located within Studio 211, which is located at 211 S.
