About ABC Dance Company
Inspiring Miami Dancers Since 1998
ABC Dance Company is a family-owned dance studio proudly serving children, teens, adults, and families throughout Miami, Kendall, and the surrounding communities.
Founded in 1998 by Jussara Zerbino, ABC Dance Company was created with a passion for providing high-quality dance education in a caring, encouraging environment. For nearly three decades, families have trusted us to help their children grow into confident dancers and well-rounded individuals.
Today, that commitment remains at the heart of everything we do.
We believe every dancer deserves to feel welcomed, supported, challenged, and celebrated—whether they are attending their very first dance class or pursuing advanced competitive training.
At ABC Dance Company, we do more than teach dance. We inspire confidence, encourage creativity, build meaningful friendships, and help every student discover their full potential.
OUR APPROACH TO ENCOURAGING & TEACHING DANCE…
Our Story
ABC Dance Company began with a simple but powerful vision: to create a dance studio where students could receive excellent training while feeling loved, respected, and encouraged.
Since opening our doors in 1998, we have had the privilege of teaching generations of dancers from Miami and Kendall. Some students begin with us as toddlers, grow through our recreational and Company programs, and eventually return as teachers, mentors, parents, and lifelong members of the ABC family.
Our history is built on more than performances, trophies, and technique. It is built on the relationships we form with our dancers and their families.
We are proud to be a studio where:
Children are encouraged to be themselves.
Teachers know and care about their students.
Families feel welcomed and included.
Dancers learn the value of discipline and teamwork.
Friendships grow both inside and outside the classroom.
Every accomplishment—big or small—is celebrated.
For us, dance education is personal. Every student who walks through our doors becomes an important part of our story.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide exceptional dance education that nurtures the artistic, physical, emotional, and personal development of every student.
Through professional instruction and age-appropriate training, we encourage dancers to:
Explore new challenges
Develop strong dance technique
Express themselves creatively
Build confidence and resilience
Learn responsibility and discipline
Respect their teachers and fellow dancers
Create meaningful, lifelong friendships
Develop a lasting appreciation for the art of dance
We are committed to developing more than talented performers. We strive to develop kind, confident, hardworking individuals who carry the lessons they learn in dance into every area of their lives.
Our Core Values
Teaching with Love
We teach with compassion, patience, and care so every dancer feels supported and valued.
Artistic Excellence
We provide high-quality dance instruction while encouraging creativity, musicality, artistry, and self-expression.
Confidence and Empowerment
We help students recognize their strengths, embrace their individuality, and develop the confidence to pursue their goals.
Respect and Inclusion
We welcome dancers from different backgrounds and experience levels and work to maintain a safe, respectful environment for everyone.
Friendship and Teamwork
We teach dancers to encourage one another, work collaboratively, and understand that every member of a group contributes to its success.
Growth with Purpose
We develop the whole dancer by supporting artistic, emotional, physical, and personal growth.
The ABC Difference
Professional Training with Personal Attention
Every dancer learns differently. That is why our classes are organized according to age, experience, and ability rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.
Our instructors provide thoughtful corrections, encouragement, and individualized attention so students can progress safely and confidently. Class sizes are carefully managed to help teachers build meaningful relationships with their dancers and understand their individual strengths and goals.
A Positive, Family-Oriented Environment
Children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and valued.
At ABC Dance Company, we work hard to create a positive studio culture where dancers are encouraged to support one another, celebrate each other’s accomplishments, and grow together.
We want every child to feel excited to come to class and every parent to feel confident that their dancer is learning in a caring, professional environment.
Training for the Whole Dancer
Strong technique is an important part of dance education—but it is not the only part.
Our students also learn:
Confidence
Creativity
Perseverance
Accountability
Teamwork
Respect
Time management
Grace in both success and disappointment
These lessons help our dancers succeed onstage, in school, and throughout their lives.
A Place to Belong
Dance creates connections that can last a lifetime.
At ABC Dance Company, students become part of a community where they can make friends, express themselves, and feel a genuine sense of belonging. Many of the relationships formed in our classrooms continue long after a dancer’s final performance.
Dance Programs for Every Stage
ABC Dance Company offers dance classes for students of different ages, experience levels, interests, and goals.

More Than Performances and Awards
Performances, competitions, and accomplishments are exciting parts of the dance experience, but they are not the only ways we measure success.
We also celebrate the dancer who finally masters a difficult step.
We celebrate the shy child who gains the courage to perform.
We celebrate the student who learns to accept a correction, support a teammate, or keep trying after a disappointment.
We celebrate every dancer who becomes stronger, more confident, and more capable than they were when they began.
Those moments represent the true purpose of dance education—and they are the reason we love what we do.
