Laure Kersch

Laure Kersch

Instructor

Laure has loved dance since time eternal and was initially nicknamed “Twinkle Toes” by her parents as a small child. Hailing from a family of singers, musicians, and dancers, Laure was quick to dance to the beat of the drum. Her journey at SMSD began 20 years ago when she enrolled in the studio’s adult dance program. Shortly afterwards, she was invited to assist in dance classes, and she later became a full-time dance teacher. She feels blessed beyond measure to be able to share her love of dance with young children who fill her heart with indescribable joy. As a teacher, she continues to dance, study and train in the many genres of dance.

Since 1979 she has been married to the man of her dreams, who has been a great supporter of her dance years at SMSD. Together they have 3 adult sons, 2 of whom took classes at SMSD!
