Part of our Philosophy - A teacher should be more than a technique instructor, they are role models. Our teachers are intelligent, wholesome, well-rounded individuals who are here not only to teach excellent technique, but to inspire and encourage your child to reach their full potential as a person. We are proud of our teachers and how they provide the students with choreography that is never questionable yet fun, fresh and funky. We are continually praised by judging panels for our ability to "keep it age-appropriate". Our dancers are proud to show their parents, grand parents and friends what they have accomplished throughout the dance season. Choreography is just part of the puzzle...our teachers understand our philosophy. They are helping to create good kids who love life and love dance!                                        

Ella Bettich
When Ella stood outside the door to Graci's classroom at the age of 18 months,  and cried "I dance" we could only assume either she was going to love dance when finally allowed into the classroom OR that she was just being dramatic.  Time has proved that both things are correct.  Ella dances with her whole heart and it shows.  Needless to say, Ella's dance career started very young.  Ella is a 2021 RWHS graduate where she was an Honor Roll student and a member of NHS.  Besides teaching at Shoreline, Ella enjoys her job at Building Blocks Childcare and Learning Center.  Throughout her dance career, Ella assisted, substituted and taught classes of her own. She achieved many Judges Awards, Platinums and overall placements with  her solos, duets, trios and small group.   Ella was an encourager as a teammate and will carry that trait into her role as adult instructor.  Ella excels at any style of dance but she is in her element with tap and musical theatre!  Ella will be attending the Unviersity of Wisconsin River Falls pursuing a Music degree and will continue to teach at Shoreline!
