Red Door Dance Academy opened in the Summer of 2010 to bring professional teaching to the Wylie, Murphy, Plano, Garland, and surrounding areas for children of all ages and abilities. Starting in their first year with a small, but dedicated group of students Red Door, under the direction of Marisa Mailhes, began its mission to inspire children to move, dance, and be creative. The studio has now grown tremendously and continues to grow each year.

Red Door opened the doors to its brand new facility in October of 2015. This new facility provides a beautiful and creative space for dancers to take classes. Our building boasts a large, comfortable waiting area with live-feed cameras to allow parents to watch their children’s classes as they are happening and a dance boutique to meet all your dancewear and dance shoe needs. We then had four spacious dance rooms equipped with custom-built sprung floors to prevent injury and fatigue, professional-grade audio equipment, and custom ballet barres. In 2020, we opened an annex building room and in 2022, we added an additional room to meet the needs of our growing studio! Now Red Door hosts classes in six fully equipped dance rooms!

We offer a wide range of programs to fit every student’s needs. We offer instruction in many styles of dance for recreational dancers as well as those who want to be more serious in a competitive dance program. We have levels for all abilities as well as birthday parties, private lessons, and choreography services.

We believe every child will gain something from dance classes and we are here to give students that positive experience. Our staff is highly trained and extremely enthusiastic to meet and work with new dancers.

Our favorite thing to do here at RDDA is get inspiRED!
