Miss Miriam began developing her talents at the age of four. Throughout her youth, she excelled in all forms of dance, music, and musical instruments while expanding her skills into the entertainment world. She has performed with various ballet companies such as Dallas Metropolitan Ballet, and has sung professionally across the US and Japan and recently donated her time and talents for the Make A Wish Foundation. Miriam is qualified to teach the entire ASME curriculum. However, being fluent in multiple languages has placed her at the head of our Spanish in Motion program. She teaches all levels of Spanish (preschool and school) and is an integral part of the continuous development of this program.

As she rejoins the ASME staff serving as lead teacher in all areas of ASME curriculum, Billie is the symbol of a teacher who can not only do it all, but can do it all well! She discovered her interest in dance as a toddler when she accidentally placed a tape in the 8-track system, and she’s been dancing ever since. She performed with the Dallas Ballet for 2 years and competed on all levels nationally as a competitive dancer. As a mother of a teenager, Billie has that unique insight into a child’s needs and makes each student feel he/she is special and important.

Miss Jill is trained in various forms of dance and theater. Currently she is performing and choreographing at Six Flags over Texas. Jill is one of our lead teachers, and certified in ASME Spanish in Motion, ASME physical exercise programs, ballet, tap, jazz, tumbling, cheer, and martial arts. While juggling mother and wife duties as well as performance appearances, Jill is always upbeat, positive, and with a smile on her face, gently coaxes the best from her students.
