Hi I’m Sydney! I am a tap and clogging teacher/choreographer here at 3D Dance! I’ve been dancing for 16 years and have loved every second of it! I currently attend App State and I’m majoring in Commercial Photography and General Management, but I will be back every month or so to do privates and classes.

I own and operate my own photography business- Sydney Willis Photography. While at school, I became a member of Syncopation Tap Club and am now the treasurer! I help put together showcases every semester and choreograph group and solo routines. I also have experience choreographing and performing competitive tap and clogging routines. I am so excited to start this journey here at 3D and watch these girls shine on stage!

Jamey is our triple edged sword! As a singer, dancer, and actress, Jamey knows how to take on the Stage! She has been a North Carolina Dance Ambassador for 3 seasons, was a Durham Performing Arts Ambassador last season, and has performed in Clayton Theatricals theater productions consisting of Seussical The Musical, The Little Mermaid, and Shrek where she starred as Pinocchio!

Jamey is currently attending Meredith College studying theater with a K-12 licensure and hopes to become a theater teacher one day. She grew up as a dancer her whole life but found a love for theater along with it. Her passion is to help people find a love for the arts in some type of way. Whether it’s performing onstage, watching in the audience, or screaming the loudest for your dancer at a competition, Jamey is ready to take on the world!
