Ashley Rust was born in Las Vegas, Nevada and raised in Northwest Arkansas. Ashley was an Army wife for several years and she now raises her three daughters, all of which are TPDC Dancers, alongside her husband. She grew up dancing for local studios in NWA and focused on ballet training in her formative dance years. Ms. Ashley has a special passion for the Recreational program at TPDC. She loves being able to share her love for dance while working with all ages of dancers. Seeing dancers grow in their skill and love for dance is one of the most fulfilling aspects of teaching Recreational Dancers. Her favorite styles of dance are Musical Theatre and Ballet. Ms. Ashley believes that it is important to not only teach students how to be better dancers, but also how to be good humans. She enjoys sharing her passion for dance with the TPDC Recreational Dancers as we tell our story.
