Meet Founder & Owner of Axis School of Dance:
Lauren Greenwood
Having danced herself for 17 years and studied with top modern dance companies and teachers from NYC, Lauren unfortunately sustained a back injury that would remove her from the professional world of dance, but put her on a business path, that would eventually lead her back to doing what she loved; but in a total different capacity. After 15 years working in corporate America, Lauren began to look for way to incorporate her former life of dance into her daily routine. She looked high and low for a place where she as an adult (as a non-professional) could go dance, but outside the city, there were no options. Seeing a gap in the market for adults who wanted to dance; in April 2019 she opened The Studio at Hoboken: A Dance Studio Just for Adults.
Now she takes her business and embarks on a new journey: Axis School of Dance; working to bring the true study of dance back, focusing on the core principles of technique and training all while being taught by active industry professionals who are still in the business. "There is something to be said about being taught by people who are still working in the industry day in and day out." - Lauren said. Our goal at Axis is to equip the next generation of dancers to become fully versatile for wherever their journey takes them!
