Tammi Green and Melissa Mulligan began this journey as ballet moms with a shared vision. What started as conversations about opening a shop to provide a broader selection of pointe shoes to the San Antonio community quickly grew into something much bigger. Along the way, it became clear that San Antonio needed a ballet studio that would nurture a love of dance while remaining deeply rooted in the art, discipline, and integrity of classical ballet.
After countless hours of research, prayer, planning, and perseverance through setbacks and obstacles, the studio was born.
Two years after opening, Tammi and her family relocated. Since then, Melissa has continued leading and growing the school independently. Her commitment to her students and to the art of ballet remains unwavering. She is deeply dedicated to providing high-quality, structured training while fostering a supportive and encouraging environment for every dancer.
This studio exists because of Melissa’s genuine love for ballet and for the students she teaches. Her mission is not simply to run a dance school, but to cultivate discipline, artistry, confidence, and passion in every dancer who walks through the doors. It is her hope that each student leaves not only stronger in technique, but inspired to pursue their dreams with integrity and determination.
