Our Mission

As Brookhaven's premier performing arts studio, we provide private and small group sessions in music and dance to all ages, as well as professional/pre-professional coaching. The Studios Brookhaven aims to engage students in fulfilling classes and challenge them to reach their artistic potential.

We hope you will find The Studios Brookhaven to be an inviting, family friendly space where you are free to reach for the highest notes, soar in the grandest battements, and unleash your artistry. 

Our grand opening was January 31, 2022, which included our newly renovated main studio, geared towards early childhood and small group classes. Off of our main studio is our art and science studio, and two private music studios equipped with pianos. We also have a comfortable waiting area for parents to sit and work or watch their kids enjoy class! 

In the future, we will be adding a large professional dance studio, additional small group music and dance rooms, dressing rooms and more!

Hi! We are Don & Kate Jones. Rooted in our unending love for the arts, our desire for The Studios Brookhaven is to make exemplary arts training available to all ages and skill levels, from nurturing curiosity and exploration for the littlest of littles, to masterclass workshops and audition coaching for professionals, and everything in between. We are just starting out on this journey, and hope you will join us! 

A little bit about us- 

We have lifelong passions for all things art and music. Like everyone, we spent most of 2020 quarantined and desperate for a return to normalcy and, when restrictions finally lifted, we were eager to enroll our then 18-month old daughter in dance and music activities. We searched and searched, but couldn't quite find what we were looking for. That's when the idea for The Studios Brookhaven was born. We began conjuring ideas to create the offering we, as both Brookhaven parents and arts professionals, were seeking.  

Our story-

We met in New York where Don was a Broadway conductor and pianist for some little known shows (Wicked, The Little Mermaid...), while Kate was a sound designer and audio engineer. After ten years, countless productions and thousands of performances, we decided to return to Atlanta (Kate's hometown) to pursue our MBAs. We live in Brookhaven with our beautiful 3-year old daughter, Allie, and our two dogs, Morgan and Max. Kate works for Merrill and Don is a freelance musician, as well as the Director of Music at Brookhaven United Methodist Church and the music teacher for the Child Development Center at BUMC. 

The Studios Brookhaven is grateful to lease space from Brookhaven United Methodist Church. Although The Studios Brookhaven has no religious affiliation with the church or the Child Development Center, if you are seeking additional information regarding BUMC or the CDC we are happy to point you in the right direction!
