Yvette’s Dance Academy was founded in Fayetteville, NC, in August 2009. Driven by a passion for making high-quality dance education accessible to everyone, Mrs. Yvette began offering dance and tumbling classes at various recreation centers and schools across the community. Her goal was clear, to offer quality dance instruction at an affordable price, ensuring that more families could experience the joy and discipline of dance.
In 2016, YDA opened it’s first studio, creating a dedicated space where students could learn, grow, and thrive. Since then, YDA has become a home for minority dancers, providing opportunities to train in diverse dance styles while building connections with experienced instructors who bring a wide array of cheer and dance expertise.
At Yvette’s Dance Academy, we believe that dance is about more than just technique—it’s about building character. Over the years, YDA has proudly established itself as a nurturing space where students can explore their potential, celebrate their culture, and grow into confident individuals ready to make a difference in their communities. Our purpose is to create not only great dancers but also great people, instilling self-confidence, discipline, and a sense of community in every student, empowering them to become leaders both on and off the dance floor.
