Letter to the Editor: From Dineen Bartolo

Nov. 29, marked the one year anniversary for Studio 21!  

Danielle Lannon began dancing at the age of 3 and always dreamed of owning her own dance studio. One year ago, Ms. Danielle Lannon’s dreams came true when she opened her doors for the first day of dance classes in her hometown of Swampscott.

The goal of Studio 21 is to provide her students with the highest levels of a positive introduction into the world of dance and creative movement through music and fun activities, while teaching the fundamentals of dance.

What sets Studio 21 apart is that it is cost effective and an enjoyable atmosphere in which you truly feel like it is a one-on-one experience. Ms. Danielle Lannon donates to surrounding communities to help with various charities and causes that inspire and motivate people to live active healthy lives.              

Established in 2010, Studio 21 is a dance studio located at 21 Elm Place in Swampscott. By specializing in all sorts of dance classes for kids including ballet, jazz, tap, hip hop, Zumba and Zumbatomic it gives students of all ages to experience her high energy classes.

Starting at the age of 2, her Mommy & Me program provides a fun and nurturing environment for each toddler to begin building their foundation to dance and movement.

Children ages 2.9 to 5 can be enrolled in their Tiny Dancer program, a specially designed dance class to introduce pre-ballet and beginner tap movements.

Dancers ages 5 and up can choose from several areas of dance education including ballet, jazz, tap and hip hop.

Studio 21 also offers Zumba classes for adults and Zumbatomic for kids.   

I know personally that Danielle Lannon is very thankful to all of her students and their families for allowing her the opportunity to pass on her passion for the art of dance!
