Bio of Tammy Romani

Tammy began her dancing career her second semester of college when, after seeing a dance concert by the dance department at Kansas State University, she fell in love with the dance and changed her major.  Her college studies were mainly in ballet, modern and jazz dancing, and she was a member of the Kansas State Repertory Dance Company while attending K-State.  While in college, she danced in and also choreographed several pieces for dance concerts that were held each semester as well as attended summer dance camps at places like Alvin Ailey and State Ballet of Missouri.  She graduated in 1989 from KSU with a degree in dance and then moved in 1991 to Chicago where she met Frank.  She began teaching ballroom at his studio and performed in showcases that were held at the studio as well as other places around the city of Chicago.  She continues teaching ballroom dancing and has taught other forms of dancing to people of all ages as well.  She performs in showcases throughout the Valley, and is noted for some of the beautiful formations she has choreographed for showcases performed by students of the dance.

As well as dancing, Tammy is also her children's Mom.

The Kids

Yes, our kids dance too!

Though he has decided a career in dance is not his forte, with a bit of coaxing, Aaron can still cut the rug with a swing and foxtrot as smooth as glass.  Being around a dance studio all his life, he's picked up many steps his father taught over the years.  He is currently out on his own and working to make a living.

Laura, also having grown up in a dance studio all her life and following in her father's footsteps, has decided a career in the dance field is in her best interest, and is working with her husband, Dustin Bates, to build up a clientele and start their own dance studio on the West side of town.  Dustin is also a lifetime dancer and is currently teaching and competing with Laura.  They have two children, Aviana and Lily, who will no doubt be dancers too.

Amanda, Giovanna and Matthew have also danced all their young lives as well, and music is simply a part of them and their continuing education.  Amanda and Giovanna have shown themselves to be not only up and coming dancers, but talented violinists as well.  Matthew would love to play the drums and it will be just a matter of time before we have to break down and by a set.

Praise Him with timbrel and dancing.  NAS
