About

The Gobel School of Dance, formerly the Maryse Gobel Ballet Academy, was founded by Maryse Gobel over 30 years ago.  This is Katie Parr’s 3rd year as director.

The GSD focuses on the quality of our ballet, jazz & ballroom dance instruction.  We work toward a full-length classical ballet performed at the end of each year while also continuing to instruct our dancers in technique, discipline and poise.

We are lucky to have the opportunity to include professional guest artists in our productions.
