Our Instructors
Danielle Tucker
Owner/Director
Originally from Tennessee, Danielle began her dance training at the age of 8 under the instruction of Pat Brown-Seltzer. Ballet being her main focus, she went on to join a youth company (Ballet Arts Inc.) and danced major roles in many memorable performances such as The Nutcracker, Classical Symphony, Peter Pan, and Cinderella. At the age of 18, Danielle moved to Nashville to further pursue a career in professional dancing. She continued her studies with programs at Nashville Ballet, Joffrey Ballet of New York, and The Royal Winnipeg Ballet School of Canada, among others. While training with the Vanderbilt Dance program in 2012, she accepted company positions with Husted Dance Company and Found Movement Group before moving to Michigan. Upon arriving in Michigan, Danielle began teaching ballet at a local dance studio and realized she had a passion for teaching and choreographing, as well. After 3 years she, along with her mother Roxanne, decided to open Dance Arts of Holly. Danielle currently teaches ballet 1-3, pointe and pre-pointe, contemporary 1 and 2, jazz 1 and 2, and hip hop 1. Outside the studio, Danielle enjoys baking, practicing photography, and spending time with her husband, Zach, and three children, Noah, Elliana, and Alden.
Hey, my name is Khadija Foreman and dance/music are my first love! I'm excited to be teaching hip hop in 2025. My love for dancing started very young, at 6 years old. As it came so natural to me, I wanted to further my practice and education gaining years of experience in hip hop, jazz, drill/step, and cheerleading. My love for the arts grew from there! Studying in acting classes at Studios of Michigan (2019), writing poems since age 7, learning how to play guitar, producing and making music, etc. I have years of child care experience and, in working with children, my patience grew. Being passionate, persistent, and patient helps influence every child's growth and confidence. I'm very excited to be working with these dancers! Outside of dance I am a cat lover, I enjoy editing videos, spending time with my family, watching movies, game night, baking, and coming up with different crafty, creative project ideas.
