Gulf Coast Dancenter

I’m Anne Carollo, studio owner, educator, and forever student of ballet. With over 20 years of teaching experience, I’m passionate about breaking things down in a way that clicks, especially for beginners who want clear, approachable guidance. I love finding creative, unconventional ways to help you understand ballet so you feel confident and inspired.

My mission is to make ballet accessible whether you don’t have a studio nearby, you’re prepping for classes, or you want to deepen your technique. I’m certified in ABT®, PBT, 4-Pointe, and Florida Dance Masters in Ballet and Jazz, and I’m excited to share what I’ve learned with you.

At Gulf Coast Dancenter, we believe ballet is for everyone. Explore, learn, and grow one step, plié, and port de bras at a time.

✨ Subscribe and let’s learn ballet together your way. ✨

💙 If you want to dance with me in person, I have an Adult Summer Dance Intensive on June 26-28, 2026. You can find the link with more information below.
