Lana’s Dance Studio began in 1979 under the direction of Lana Wright, and for 45 years the studio has been welcoming young dancers, with Lana celebrating her 46th year as owner and director. The studio presents an annual production show in June at the San Jose Center for Performing Arts. Lana’s Dance Studio focuses on fostering development of the youngest dancers through young adults, offering a wide variety of classes in a non-competitive environment where a child’s well-being is stated as the first priority, and operating in a structured setting where listening skills are taught during weekly lessons.
Lana Wright is the owner and director, and the leadership team includes Leila Wright Bobzien as co-director of competitive teams, Angie Dixon as director of recreational dance and office manager, resident choreographers Cassidy Paskett Webb, Tori Evans, and Josh Escover, competitive team staff Kara Richey and Chloe Cance, Pauline Locsin-Kanter as director of adult programs, Madison Muro Mills and Evelyn Burch for recreational classes and competitive teams, Lauren Venosta as nutritionist advisor, and Erin Schulz as physical therapist advisor. Lana has experience in tap, jazz, ballet, hula, and acrobatics, formed her first competition team within a couple of years of opening, set routines for the Sacramento Kings Fast Break Dancers and San Jose Jammer Girls, judged and choreographed for Dance Masters of America and I Love Dance, and taught as a guest in Australia, Florida, Texas, and Lake Tahoe. Her students have gone on to work on Broadway, in music videos, on cruise ships, with The Radio City Music Hall Rockettes, and for professional teams including the Sacramento Kings, Golden State Warriors, San Francisco 49ers GoldRush, San Diego Chargers Girls, Oakland Raiderettes, Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, and San Jose SaberKittens.
Leila Wright Bobzien joined the Radio City Rockettes, performed on the international tour of the Radio City Music Hall Christmas Spectacular in Mexico City, spent three seasons with the San Jose SaberCats “SaberKittens,” and was named Dancer of the Year in 2001 and 2002 and SaberKitten of the Year in 2003. From 2004 to 2006 she performed with the San Francisco 49ers Gold Rush Cheerleaders, later served on the Ambassador Alumni Gold Rush Squad, trained under choreographers including Mia Michaels and Mark Meismer, and earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Management with a minor in Speech Communication from San José State University in 2005. She has received multiple titles from Showbiz National Talent, StarPower Talent Competition, Headliners Dance Championships, and KAR Dance Competition, along with performance and technique awards, and was crowned Miss Almaden Valley USA and placed in the Top 15 at Miss California USA.
Angie Dixon began dancing at age three, trained in tap, jazz, and ballet for fifteen years, started competing at age ten and won many awards over ten years of competition, and began teaching at age sixteen. She traveled to Australia and New Zealand in 1995 on a Goodwill Ambassador tour, graduated from Sacramento State University in 1999 with a BA in Organizational Communication, and taught in Sacramento and Folsom for eight years before teaching for Lana. Lana has received many choreography awards for her tap style, and she has performed throughout the community at events, rest homes, and for the troops at Fort Ord.
