Carin Noland Tahouri is a former professional dancer and a movement artist and educator whose work blends strong technical foundations with expressive, music-driven movement. The Dance Hub’s facilities include a Victoria Studio measuring 33′ by 30′ with a state-of-the-art floating floor suitable for bare feet, socks, sneakers, ballroom, flamenco (no nails!), and tap, and a Big Studio measuring 36′ by 40′ with a state-of-the-art floating floor and an easy-to-use professional sound system. The Dance Hub is available for rental for classes, workshops, and rehearsals, and gift cards are monetary values that can be used for any American Dance & Music (AD&M) purchase. Development of The Dance Hub is partially funded by the Organizational Development Grants Program using funds provided by the City of Santa Barbara as administered by the Santa Barbara County Office of Arts and Culture, and its state-of-the-art floating floor was funded by a Capital Improvement Grant from the Santa Barbara Foundation and by individual donors. TDH is a non-profit.

“I dance because since I was a little boy I was inspired by my wonderful parents who were both professional dancers with the Ballet National of Cuba. I love the beauty, elegance, complexity and magic of dance. I knew since a very early age that ballet was my destiny.” - Rudy Candia
