Talara Ruth, Dance Director, of Dance Truth, where artistic excellence thrives in a supportive environment. Talara began dancing as a toddler in her native NYC and performed professionally since the age of six in musical theater, modern dance, acrobatics and contemporary ballet. She trained as a teacher for decades with the late Nenette Charisse (teacher for Jerome Robbins’ dancers) and the legendary David Howard (teacher for stars of ABT and NYCB) Talara has a degree in performing arts and dance performance and education from NYU Tisch and Empire State.
She has been teaching dance for five decades, including Evergreen, Colorado, upstate New York, New York City and Southern California, all where she owned her own studios. Her past students perform all over the world from contemporary ballet (Aspen Ballet, Boston Ballet, Canyon Concert Ballet, Colorado ballet, Complexions, Danish Dance Theater, Philadelphia Ballet, Royal Danish, to name a few) and on Broadway (Beautiful, Beauty and the Beast, Lion King, Tap Dog) Talara's greatest joy and life work is helping children expand their creativity and physical acumen through the joy of dance.

About Us

My 6 yr old daughter trains with Ms Talara and I am thrilled with her progression! Ms T has an amazing gift and is so good with the at times distracted and fidgety young ones. They laugh and dance and have a wonderful time, I see my daughters focus and attention span increasing by the class! Thank you Ms T for imparting your love of dance and really engaging the children you work with....


Dance education is our life work!
