Deborah Morgan Dance Studio
Deborah Morgan established the Deborah Morgan Dance Studio in Turlock, California in 1977 on a part-time basis with 50 students while she completed her studies at San Jose State University, which led to the 1978 Bachlor's Degree with Honors in Performing Arts, with a concentration in Dance and a Music minor.

Deborah is also a Credentialed Certified Instructor for American Ballet Theatre (ABT) in New York, New York. Conitnued expansion of the Turlock studio enrollment necessitated a move to larger quarters in 1984 with two separate studios and dance floors. 1994 marked the opening of the North Modesto site to serve the demands of the area.
Services
Dance classes are offered in jazz, tap, hip hop, ballet and pointe. Classes are offered for ages 3 to adult.

Ballet/tap combination classes are offered for our little ones, and jazz/tap combination classes for our older dancers.
A $48.00 payment for lessons is due on or before the first lesson of each month to receive the discount price; payments not recieved by the dancer's second lesson of the month will increase $6.00, therefore, totaling $54.00. Returned checks incur a charge of $25.00 or 3 times the amount of the check or $100.00 minimum; after two returned checks -- cash only.

We love Deborah. My daughter has been dancing for 6 plus year's with 2 different schools. We found Deborah Morgan Dance Studio in December of 2018. We were with another dance studio that DIDN'T work out for my… daughter. Deborah let my daughter come in even though they were already learning recital dance routines which my daughter will be dancing in her first recital with Deborah Morgan in a couple of week's. Within a short few months my daughter has been with Deborah and her staff they have made my daughter feel welcomed, loved and has made my daughter fall in love with dance again. Deborah

I danced for Deborah from age 5-18. I recommend dancing for her if you don't already. She is very structured, talented and has a heart of gold. The DMDS staff are like family to us. The dancers are respected and taught to respect themselves as well as others, taught to work hard and hard work WILL pay off. DMDS offers good old fashion values, great dance moves and a dance FAMILY you can count on. Recital is ALWAYS amazing and gets better every year. Join today, you will never regret it.

We have been with Deborah for 7 years. All 3 of my girls have danced for her, and every girl loves it. She's great with all ages, very appropriate (unlike other studios I've seen) and puts on a wonderful recital. I would definitely recommend this studio.

My two daughters are in their second year of dance at DMDS and they enjoy every minute of it. Deborah is great with the young dancers and her assistants are very personable. They truly love teaching the art of dance and it shows. Thank you DMDS!

Deborah Morgan Dance studio has given my girls confidence,strength,courage to be great dancers and leaders. My daughter has been at this studio over 10 years and continues to learn from a dedicated teacher. If your considering choosing a studio for your child or children this is by far the best.

I have been part of DMDS for 26 years and can't say enough about how Deborah has helped shape me into the woman I am today. Not only did I find my passion for dance, but also confidence, grace, perseverance, and a number of other qualities that I'm so thankful I have attained because of Deborah and the studio. The motto is on our studio walls, and it couldn't be more true! "Dance Lessons are Life Lessons."

I have been coming to the Deborah Morgan Dance Studio for 20 years now (between 2 daughters) and her commitment to her dancing families is genuine and heartfelt. Not only does she teach her dancers proper technique, but she teaches them poise and grace as well. I thank her for helping me raise my daughters to be fine young ladies. As Miss Deborah says........"Dance lessons are life lessons"!!!

Deborah was my instructor when I was little and now she's my daughter's instructor. I've heard there's no other studio that compares to DMDS and I believe it. Throughout the year, a lot of work gets put into the recital at the end of the year and it shows.

Audrey loves dancing! She is going into her 2nd year of dance and after leaving class asks when does she get to go back...She tells everyone that when she grows up she wants to be a ballerina! Looking forward to many years at DMDS.
