Murphy School of Dance

Welcome to Murphy School of Dance

​"Western North Carolina's premier dance education program"

 

Established in 1988, MSOD offers students the opportunity to commit to either a Recreational or Conservatory dance program within one quality studio environment. With former students now performing in New York, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles, MSOD has proven its ability to train and guide students to success at all levels of commitment.

 

A sincere "dance family", Murphy School of Dance provides the highest quality of dance education within a loving and nuturing environment. Students are encouraged to be accountable, responsible, and self-reliant; qualities we know will assist them in all of their future endevors.  

 

In an environment which celebrates each student's unique talents and abilities, MSOD seeks to provide a creative outlet for student self-expression and to promote an atmosphere of community and compassion. We believe our students will rise to the expectation we set for them...so we set them high!
