Courtney Raney
Teachers Assistant
Courtney first began her training in the arts as a Gymnast at age of seven. Gemini Gymnastics assisted very much in her growth as a tumbler and gave her the knowledge needed to coach as well as perform.
At eight years of age Courtney began her dance training at Jennifer’s Arts in Motion. While in attendance with Jennifer’s Arts in Motion, Courtney completed her B.A.T.D. examinations to her fullest extent completing all Acro exams prior to the Teachers Association (instructor’s level)-as this can only be completed at the age of sixteen.
In the year 2009 Courtney could proudly say "I Step with Style!" Courtney is a proud member of SWS. In just one season her dancing has changed tremendously! Working with sought after instructors such as Amanda Coatham, Alexander Chifman, Twitch, Brandon Bryant, Theresa Howard, Almitra McMillan and many more! Miss Raney is thrilled to pass on her knowledge as an Assistant while learning the ropes for instructor duties in the future at SWS.
"I am a proud member of SWS and I must say, I am loving it. There are so many talented instructors I am so lucky to have the opportunity to work with them. I love that Step with Style has amazing team work skills. As much as you want to get better as an individual, everyone wants to get better as a group. I felt so welcomed my first day at Step with Style and I still feel welcomed each and every day. I am thankful to be apart of such an amazing, well rounded studio. Assisting is a great way for me to give back to the studio that has given me so much! Can’t wait to meet the students I am assisting!"
