She believes in nurturing her dancers to become hardworking and compassionate individuals who are passionate about dance while kind to others.

Tyrone has sung with Jerry Herman’s Broadway and acted in TV series’ such as FBI: The Untold Stories. As an instructor he founded and operated two successful New York dance academies teaching and coaching dance throughout the world from little ones learning 1st position to top level professionals in major dance companies, private studios, school districts, and in prestigious universities such as Adelphi University, NY and The Claremont Colleges, CA.

Originally from the New York/New Jersey metro area, Gail DeZon began her ballet studies under the
tutelage of some of the world’s most revered teachers, including Vitale Fokine, Graziella Danielli, Muriel
Stuart and Finis Jung. As a Jazz dancer, Matt Mattox, Charles Kelly, Lynn Simonson, Phil Black, Fred
Benjamin and Luigi were her mentors. Gail’s formal training also included Boston Conservatory of
Music as a dance major/minor voice, Brooklyn College and many independent studies in NYC.
Gail began her teaching career at sixteen, providing instruction in Ballet, Jazz, Tap and Exercise
techniques throughout the New Jersey area. Moving to Brooklyn, she partnered in opening and
operating The Dance Studio of Park Slope, still thriving today. An ongoing collaboration between the
Studio and Macy’s resulted in co-choreographing many televised events including Macy’s
Thanksgiving Parade and the Tap Event for the Guinness Book of Records, assembling the
greatest number of tap dancers ever assembled. The studio partnership also created many staged
productions including multiple recitals and performances of the Nutcracker.
She then went on to teach at all three locations of the prestigious New Jersey Ballet, then under the
direction of Edward Villella; a further series of moves enabled Gail to continue to teach multiple dance
disciplines with a strong specialization in Ballet in NE Ohio, Philadelphia, Southern California and, as
a guest teacher in Tianjin, China. Eagerly sought after as a personal coach, she has also provided
private training for Olympic level skaters, gymnasts and regional dance teams.
When she first arrived in SoCal, Gail taught in Ontario, and then anchored Beaumont’s Dance
Spectrum for 14 years, which included choreographing their ongoing bi-annual production of the
Nutcracker. She has also taught and choreographed at the California Ballet Opera, Dance Dimensions
and Michael Nickerson Rossi here in the Valley.
Gail considers it a great privilege to also continue to exercise her vocal talents as a member of several
leading regional choral groups which provided the career highlights of singing in Carnegie Hall, Lincoln
Center, Philadelphia’s Academy of Music, Beijing’s’ Forbidden City, and Shanghai’s Grand Theatre.
Most recently she happily added The Redlands Bowl, the McCallum Theatre and the Segerstrom
Center for the Arts to her roster of vocal performances.
Based in Redlands, CA for almost thirty years, Gail was deeply involved in the community as a leader
in cultural and philanthropic efforts and also taught Ballet at the Brockus Conservatory. She continues
to stay current with the latest Ballet disciplines and modifications with online continuing education and
25 years of Pilates training. Now in the Coachella Valley since 2012, she continues to seek out
community involvement including school reading programs, CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate
for a foster child) and the Ophelia Project, a mentoring group helping college-bound teenage girls.
Gail feels very lucky to have continued teaching wherever she has lived and looks forward to once
again being a part of Dance Dimensions’ faculty!

At the age of 13, Nicole felt compelled to follow in her siblings' footsteps by joining a ballroom dance team; Idaho Ballroom Academy. She instantly fell in love with the sport. Nicole’s years in high school provided her with hours of learning, dancing, performing & competing with multiple different dance teams. With these teams, she had many performances that took place all around the Western United States, into Mexico & Canada. Successful competitions throughout Idaho & Utah were great learning opportunities for Nicole & her team members. The most memorable competition took place in Blackpool, England at the World Dancesport Championships where she and her teammates on the Idaho Dancesport Academy placed 2nd in the world for their team division.  Nicole attended Brigham Young University-Idaho where she received her bachelor’s degree in Home & Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in child development & a minor degree in dance. Her college years offered her the opportunity to join the BYU-Idaho ballroom & Extravadance touring dance teams. Once she married & started a family, she stepped away from ballroom dancing but continued to pursue instruction in other styles of dance. Her college degree allowed her time to explore Jazz, Tap, & Ballet all while raising her 4 little ones. This is Nicole’s 3rd season teaching here at Dance Dimensions & she is thrilled to be back! There is so much joy that comes from watching these dancers learn, grow, & find confidence to express themselves!
