TranscenDance Studios began in June 2009 when founding director, Cait Jones, was looking for a new home for her nonprofit youth tap ensemble, TransRhythm Tap. Recognizing a need in the Oak Park community for a dance studio that cared for its families on an individualized compassionate level, Cait vowed to provide such an atmosphere while offering a variety of classes on the forefront of their industries.
