Hi Lara- I haved lived in the downriver area just about my whole life. I also was in ballet,tap, jazz etc. A friend of mine owns her own studio in Woodhaven. (She and I both went to the same Dance Studio all through our chldhoods)I quit in High School and have regretted it ever since! I'm 39. I am not exactly sure what the exact name of her studio is. Her name is Lisa, so I am just guessing it is something like Lisa's Dance Studio. It won't be that hard to find though. The studio is on West Rd. just west of Hall Road, across the street from Millie's Restaurant. It is in a 'strip mall.' The party store and a coney island/diner are the two businesses in front. There's also a Dominoes there, and a Laundermat(I think the Laundrmt is still open. In the back is a mexican restaurant named Amigo's. She has been dancing since we were very young, continued at the studio,then started teaching there. She opened up her own studio several years ago. So, in other words, she has been dancing/teaching most of her life and loves it. Loving it makes for a much better teacher, and she is GREAT with kids. Also, she has her studio active and participating in the community. Well, I hope my description of the area helps you find the Studio! Good Luck!
