Tracy Golding and Lisa Morgan
Lisa and Tracy have a long history in the dance scene. Both having been PCDA "dance moms" to having their daughters continue on to teach and choreograph dance, there is hardly an occasion within the dance realm they cannot rise to! They are such a pivotal part of our studio and we are so grateful for their dedication.
