Our School

Classes from pre-school to adult are offered in ballet, jazz, lyrical, modern, musical theater, pointe, tap and hip-hop jazz. When asked for the reason their dance school has been so overwhelmingly successful,  Miss Kay and Miss Kim both agreed:

"Sharing a love for dance and for each other.  We are teachers who care about our school and our kids!"

This is the reason Talk of the Town Dance Studio has become one of the premiere dance schools in the area with a reputation for caring and excellence.

The origin of our name "Talk of the Town" came about in a phenomenal way.  It was 1969 and Miss Kay had been in a quandary trying to decide upon an appropriate name for her new dance school.  There were many options, however none had that "perfect" fit.  Meanwhile, Miss Kim (5 years old at the time) was a big fan of "Tom Jones" and was given his latest album as a birthday gift.  Miss Kay put Kim's new record on the record player (remember record players?).  Whether fate or coincidence, suddenly and very loudly Miss Kay heard the beginning of the record which had an announcer performing the introduction.  The words rang out in a crisp, clear voice;

"Tom Jones Live at Talk of the Town Las Vegas!"

This marked the beginning of a long, happy run for Miss Kay and Miss Kim, managing what would become the premiere dance school in the Hamilton/Trenton area.
