Benefits of Dance, Music, & Acting Lessons
Being part of a Dance, Music & Acting studio teaches important social and life skills like discipline, teamwork, how to relate to others and leadership skills. It helps with focus, stimulates the brain in association with memory, emotional development and academic achievement. This can help excel in and out of the classroom at school. With that, it increases motivation, improves learning and helps with grammar and math. Exposing children and even adults to Dance, Music & Acting helps boost the brain, build motor skills and most of all, builds confidence.
At Triple Threat School of Dance, Music & Acting we have classes and lessons for everyone in the family. By having so many options in the arts it is a great place to get all your activities at one studio, especially with 2 locations in Winston-Salem and High Point. We are the Triad’s top studio for dance, music and acting lessons. We teach dance ages 2 through Adult, music lessons start at age 5 through adult with acting and musical theatre classes. Musical Theatre is where you can dance, sing and act in one class, so it is truly becoming a “Triple Threat” who is equally talented in dance, music, and acting.
At Triple Threat we have opportunities for anyone who wants to be a professional performer or if they want to take lessons for fun and enjoy the arts. Holly has the professional experience of getting her college degree in dance education with certification K-12 and being a Radio City Rockette to help anyone who would like to audition and take their learning to the next level of making dance, music or acting a career. We do have a competition team here at Triple Threat that give the dancers opportunities to perform on stage throughout the year. Along with our annual June recitals we also have a Benefit Performance in February where we give our ticket proceeds to a children’s charity or a family in need. Not only does the Benefit Performance give our students the chance to perform on stage, it also teaches them to give back to the community.

Meet Our Owner/Director
Holly Grubb Smith has been a dancer/singer professionally and taught dance for over 35 years. Going to auditions in New York City and experiencing the world of an artist has given her the knowledge of how important learning your craft is.
Being a Radio City Rockette has been a dream come true and given Holly the ability to pass her training to others. The ability to dance, act, play an instrument or sing beautifully offers a lifetime of benefits. Dance, Music & Acting lessons also foster a student’s personal, social, and academic development.
Triple Threat School of Dance, Music & Acting has made substantial investments in our two facilities and elite faculty to provide an uplifting environment designed to foster creativity, confidence and joy. We make it our mission to help the Triad of High Point and Winston-Salem students explore and develop their talents, wherever their curiosity and interests lead them.

Reasons Why to Choose Triple Threat School of Dance, Music & Acting
Triple Threat School of Dance, Music & Acting will offer each student a well-rounded experience in the arts. Through the arts, students will develop self-confidence and self-esteem. Students will also develop their group cooperation skills, higher-level thinking skills, and creativity. Students will learn to express themselves through the arts of dance, music, and acting. We guarantee a positive learning environment and experience for each individual.
One location for multiple subjects and multiple siblings. You can take multiple classes and lessons in the different arts of dance, music, and acting at one location instead of running around to different dance studios, music studios, or community theatres to get all of your weekly lessons in. If you have a dancer in dance classes and a sibling who wants to take a music lesson, they could be scheduled on the same day and time, saving you valuable hours driving to and from different studios.
Take music lessons in a professional teaching environment. Learning music is not just a matter of having a qualified teacher, but also having an environment that is focused on music education. In a professional school environment, a student cannot be distracted by TV, pets, ringing phones, siblings, or anything else. With only 1/2 to one hour of lesson time per week, a professional school environment can produce better results since the only focus at that time is learning music. Students in a school environment are also motivated by hearing peers who are at different levels and by being exposed to a variety of musical instruments. In a music school, the lessons are not just a hobby or sideline for the teacher but a responsibility that is taken very seriously.
Quality of Teachers. Triple Threat requires teachers to be certified and university-trained or to have professional performance experience. In some studios, unprofessional and inexperienced teachers are allowed to teach class. When this happens, your child is not receiving the best instruction available.
Class Size. Class sizes are important. Some studios allow such large classes that your child cannot get the attention they need and deserve. With our limited class sizes, our professional staff can give more personalized attention.
Customer Service. When teachers and owners try to teach and do the administrative work as well, the classes, students, and parents suffer. The focus is not always in the classroom. For you and your child to have a good experience, it is important to choose a studio that offers you assistance in any further details like costumes and schedules. Our studio has office staff on hand to help you with your immediate needs.
Performance Opportunities. Most studios have only the year-end performance or give students other performance opportunities with competition teams. Students who love to dance, sing, act, or play an instrument may feel left out and ignored when competitive teams are the only performance outlet. Our studio offers: High Point Festival Holiday Parade, Christmas Music Recital, Benefit Performance, End-of-the-Year Music Recital, Musical Theater Productions (e.g., Little Mermaid, Jr. or Annie, Jr.), End-of-the-Year Dance & Tumble Recital. Other performance opportunities: With our owner, Holly Grubb Smith, being experienced with performing professionally as well as having a B.S. in Dance Education, we can guide your family to explore and develop their talents, wherever their curiosity and interests lead them.
