ANNE CHAPMAN has been singing since birth and dancing since she could walk. It was the natural progression of development growing up in the home of music educators. By middle school, she was earning honors as a vocalist and dancer, and by high school, she was teaching at the dance studio, choreographing show choirs, and singing at National ACDA Conventions. Through her college years at Baylor University, Anne remained active in choral and dance endeavors, while earning a degree in Education.
Anne taught second grade in Texas and Kindergarten in Iowa, but requests for her expertise as dance instructor, dance team coach, musical and show choir choreographer finally resulted in her transitioning from classroom educator to performance educator.
Anne’s studio pupils have been awarded regional and national honors, her dance teams have been crowned State Champions, her show choirs consistently rank at the highest levels in competition, and her skill as an adjudicator and clinician have provided her with numerous opportunities to serve as show choir camp choreographer, guest speaker at conventions and symposiums, and adjudicate competitions nationwide. Anne is a consummate performance educator; committed to the Art yet devoted to the learning that occurs through the Art. Anne Chapman: singing and dancing since birth; educating and inspiring young performers for a lifetime.
