About

Tara Nicole

With over 30 years of dance experience, Tara has been passionate about movement since she began her journey at the age of five. Raised just south of Chicago, her diverse training encompasses ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, tumbling, and contemporary styles. Competing regionally and nationally from a young age, Tara earned numerous awards and scholarships for both her solo and group performances.

After graduating from high school, Tara relocated to Arizona to pursue a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts in Performance & Choreography at Arizona State University. Following her degree, she expanded her repertoire by exploring ballroom dancing at Fred Astaire Dance Studios. Over the past decade, she has trained and taught partnership dancing, achieving significant success in professional competitions, including a memorable performance in the Thanksgiving Macy's Day Parade in 2018.
In 2019, Tara founded Tara Nicole Dance, dedicated to providing convenience, comfort, and confidence to her clients. With an emphasis on personalized instruction, she believes that learning something new is best done in the comfort of your own home. As she embarks on a rebranding journey in 2025 to become DancinGuru, Tara continues to inspire and empower dancers of all levels to embrace their passion for movement.
