Dance Revelation moved to its current building during the spring of 2008. DRS have now grown to over 220 students! Some of these students take multiple classes, which creates over 400 bodies taking classes once a week.
In just 4 years DRS's staff has grown from 2 instructors to 11 instructors. It is important to the staff that each class has 2-3 teachers so that each student can get the "individual" attention they may need.
