Norma's Academy of Dance
Norma's Academy of Dance is Metro Atlanta’s longest-standing African American founded studio. Established in 1972 by the late Norma B. Mitchell, the Academy served as a haven for young African American artists to train and learn a multiplicity of genres in the arts. We are a technique based studio offering a well-balanced, comprehensive dance education in Ballet, Hip Hop, Jazz, Modern, Pointe, Tap, and more to students ages three and up. After Ms. Mitchell’s untimely death in 1985, her daughter, Djana Bell, took the reins and carried the torch of her mother’s legacy and has been Artistic Director of the Academy for 35 years.
