A little history first about how we got here. When Shirley Winters decided in 2006  to open her own studio, she contacted Kendra Primavera who had also made the same decision a bit earlier by opening Dolce Dance at Willow and Ashlan Aves. in Fresno. The goal for them was to teach and manage their own businesses but to also benefit the other through increased offerings of class options for their respective students. In 2007 Kim Ridenour brought her management experience into the mix and because of her lead, we ended up in a much larger space and more closely located to our students.  This location in the Cedar Tree Village at the SE corner of Cedar and Herndon Aves. has been our home ever since. As of August 21st, both businesses have relocated to our space at 6244 N. Blackstone Ave. Although the space is new, we strive to continue our exceptional teaching. We continue to operate today as two different businesses sharing almost 10,000 sq. ft. of studio space to benefit students with a variety of options;  Shirley Winters Ballet with contemporary and classical ballet and modern dance and Dolce Dance with jazz, lyrical, hip hop, and contemporary.
