Founded in 1951 by Pam Voter, Voter's School of Dance has been the area's premiere dance school for over 60 years. Since opening its doors in 1951, Voter's has provided the finest dance instruction to people of all ages. Voter's has also been the official studio of the Methuen Ballet Ensemble since its inception in 1989. Pam's daughter, Vanessa founded Methuen Ballet Ensemble to serve as a platform for promising students to showcase their talents, performing both classical and modern ballets for the public. Her inspiration came from her years as a dancer with Boston Ballet. During the audition process for “The Nutcracker”, those children not cast in roles touched her, by their disappointment and tears. She vowed that someday she would have a company of her own, where every child who auditioned would be guaranteed a part. She realized her dream and has been successfully staging “The Nutcracker” for over 20 years, never having rejected an auditioning dancer.
Our mission at Voter's School of Dance is to provide students of all levels with more than just dance classes, but a unique environment in which students can grow both mentally and physically as dancers. Our highly trained and skilled instructors have a wealth of experience in teaching and performing various styles and techniques.
We offer recreational classes, as well as a competition team program for the more serious student. Additionally, we are the home studio of the Methuen Ballet Ensemble, a pre-professional ballet company that offers our students the opportunity to participate in full scale, professional ballets throughout the season.
