Kentucky Woman’s Love of Dance Inspires Her to Open New Studio in Henderson

A new dance and yoga studio is set to open in downtown Henderson, Kentucky in hopes of encouraging everyone, young and old, to get up and move their bodies.

A Passion Reignited

After years of participating in dance teams all through school, Henderson native, Amanda Tapp, says that her passion for dance was reignited when she moved away for a couple of years. Now that she is back home in Henderson, she hopes to share her love of dance and yoga with the community by offering a fun and uplifting atmosphere where people of all ages can participate.

Xpress Movement & Dance

Amanda's passion for dance and yoga, and her desire to share that passion with others has led to the creation of Xpress Movement & Dance, located inside Studio 3, on the second floor above Hometown Roots at 136 2nd Street.
