Our Story
PK Dancer Center was dreamed up by co-owners Paige Sheehan and Kathleen Morgan back in 2009 when they were just two best friends in the 7th grade. Over a decade later, that dream has become a reality.
Paige and Kathleen grew up dancing together in Arlington, MA. It was there they became best friends and fell in love with dance and assistant teaching in dance. After graduating high school, they continued their education in dance at Dean College. They each earned their BA in Dance with a concentration in Dance Pedagogy. While in college, they taught for multiple studios in the greater Boston area.
In 2024, the opportunity to serve the Concord community presented itself and they rose to the occasion. They can’t wait to work with the Concord community and provide them with a place to discover a love of dance!
