Our Story
Samantha Reynolds opened the doors to IDP in 2025 with one goal... continuing to inspire the next generation of dancers!
Beginning her dance journey at just 3 years old, dance has been apart of Samantha's life for as long as she can remember. Her childhood dance journey led her to graduating college with a BFA in Dance, and dancing professionally in Cincinnati before taking a huge leap of faith and moving across the country to Orange County, California. In California she trained and taught under Shannon Mather at Mather Dance Company. She was fortunate enough to work professionally in California as well. While she will always have a love for performing and she's grateful for the experiences she was given, her passion for teaching the next generation of dancers has always been her true purpose.
She began teaching at the age of 18 and has had the pleasure of teaching and choreographing for many studios all across the country. She is currently on Faculty with a Dance Convention and gets to continue traveling the country sharing her love for this incredible art form. Samantha's love for Dance Education was ultimately what lead her to her dream of opening Industry Dance Project. Samantha believes that with proper dance training and being in the right environment every dancer has the power to reach their fullest potential!
"Industry Dance Project is more than just a studio, it's a support system, it's a family...it's our safe space. When I started my dance journey at just 3 years old I had no idea this is where it would lead me. Every closed door, every "no", every success, every "failure" was needed... because it lead me to this. A dance community I love. An incredible faculty who I am beyond proud of and one that I couldn't do this without. A support system who never stopped believing in me even when I had doubt in myself. A group of dancers who inspire me daily with their work ethic, drive, passion, and resilience. And a place to make dreams a reality. Industry Dance Project isn't just four walls, it's a home!"
