ABOUT US
Footlights Dance Studio provides a loving, faith-filled environment for students to learn and explore the joy of dance and the arts, serving Flower Mound and surrounding cities.
Footlights Dance Studio offers all dance styles, ages 2 to adult! We provide quality dance training and education in a loving, faith-filled environment.
Entering our 29th year, we are grateful for our students, families, and the many who have supported Footlights along the way! Owned by sisters Christina Hedding and Teresa Novak, both have an extensive background in dance and love sharing their passion for the arts and student development. Our focus is on the whole student, focusing not only on their dance technique but also on their heart, mind, and soul!
We have an experienced and tenured staff, who each have a heart for teaching and upholding the mission of Footlights Dance Studio! You can view our instructors here.

We offer all styles of dance for all ages! Two years old to adult! We offer a 10% discount to military, pastor, and first responder families and a 40% discount to adults.
We have a service that allows you to view your dancers in class. You must be a registered studio family and will only have access to your dancer’s class. Please visit WatchMeGrow.com or download the app to create your account. Once your account is approved by Footlights, you will be able to watch your dancer!
We will always accommodate schedule changes, pending class availability, and before costumes are ordered. Our dance season begins in August and ends in May with our recital. When you register, you are committing to the entire dance season. If you need to change classes or cancel for some reason, please email us and we will send you a form to be completed before the next billing cycle. If it is after the 1st of the month, we will not refund tuition. There is a $35 cancelation fee per dropped class. Please note that costumes are ordered in November, and recital fees are charged in February; these are non-refundable.

Just click this link for our fee schedule. We offer sibling and adult discounts and a 10% discount to all military, first responder, and pastor families. Tuition is due on the first of each month and our dance season runs from August through May. It is a ten-month dance year, running concurrently with the school season. We offer summer classes and camps, and tuition is released at the time of summer schedules.
Each year, the recital is held at the end of May/first of June. We will announce the recital date in the fall. The dance season begins in August and finishes with our end-of-year recital.
It is not required, but certainly encouraged! Performing is an important part of dance training, and we encourage all our students to participate in our year-end performance. Plus, who doesn’t love a little stage makeup and a sparkly costume!
WE DO! We have a large, award-winning, competitive program. The program is by audition only, and we compete in all dance styles. Our auditions are held each summer in late July. If you would like more information on Footlights Performing Arts Company, please email us at [email protected]

We follow the LISD calendar for major holidays, though we are open on several teacher in-service days and student holidays. Our calendar can be found here.
We will follow LISD on school closings for inclement weather for the most part. However, in Texas – ice in the morning can mean clear streets and sunshine in the afternoon! We will always place the safety of our students and families first, but we will send emails, texts, and post on social media to notify of any closings.
Footlights Performing Arts Company (FPAC) is a competitive dance team that performs in the community and competes each Spring. Dancers are selected by audition, with auditions being held annually in July or August. The mission of FPAC is to express the joy of dance while glorifying God to the community and audiences with excellence and dance and character. For additional information and a packet on our competitive teams, please email us at [email protected].
Footlights Dance Studio has been in it’s current location since August of 2015. We have six large dance studios, equipped with sprung floors. Our facility is over 10,000 square feet and hosts a student lounge and large family waiting area.
