Dana Burnett

Dana began dance at age 11 as a student at Heather's Dance School which eventually led to her attending Oklahoma City University as a dance major. While there she performed with the American Spirit Dance Company.  After leaving college she returned to teach with Heather Caruthers at Heather's Dance School where she worked with all ages and has never looked back.  Her specialties are Tap, Jazz, Ballet, and Lyrical for all ages and levels.  "Teaching the art of dance is a big part of who I am, and these past 35 years are full of the most exciting and special heartwarming memories.  I enjoy having fun with all the dancers, and I strive to bring my love, excitement and experience to each and every class and dancer."  Thanks to my husband, Frank, for all his love and support for 30 years. Special thanks to all our teachers, parents and dancers, past and present.

Ralonda has an associate degree in Liberal Arts from Rogers State University, and an associate degree in Interior Design from Tulsa Community College.  She was a student dancer at Heather's Dance School for 15 years, active on the Competition Team, and a Teacher's Assistant.  She has been on the staff at Heather's for 21 years and her specialties are Tap, Jazz and Lyrical.  She and her husband, Brian, are parents to Garrett (18) and Sophie (13).  "What I want each student in my class to know is that I only want great things for them, not just in dance, but in life.  I hope to leave the same lasting impression on them that my teachers did for me.  I love each and every one of them and hope they know I am always in their corner."
