Our History
The Academy of Dance was established in 1989 by Susan Robbins. She focused on the art of dance
through technique offering ballet, tap and jazz. Mrs. Susan Robbins brought the Cecchetti method to
North Dakota as the foundation of teaching ballet. In 2001, Heather (Cote) Heupel, a student trained by
Susan, and Dickinson native, took over her business. Since Mrs. Heather Heupel’s purchase of the
business, the ballet standards have remained the same, while additional styles of dance were
introduced. In the past thirteen years, the Academy of Dance has offered ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop,
modern, couples classes, toning, stretch, Zumba, Mommy and Me and adult ballet & tap classes. We are
always looking for new ways to share the love of dance with the community.
In 2014, a Performance Group was established to share our students' and teachers’ creativity and love
of dance throughout the Dickinson and surrounding areas. We provide complementary entertainment
for holiday parties, teas, and other events in the community that want wholesome entertainment.
