Owner/Director

Jackie Chambers opened S.T.A.R.S. Dance Studio 18 years ago to share her love of dance with the Clarksville area.  She began dancing at the age of 3 with Mindy Jimerson at Dancin' Feet. With love and support from her family, friends and students Jackie has been able to build a magnificent studio that allows her students to be true "STARS."

"My dancers are my heroes.  They help me to be a better teacher and friend.  We are growing together, not just with dance but in life.  I wanted to share the way I feel when I dance with future dancers.  Dancing comes from the soul and allows the true star quality to shine.  I want dance to be about art and dancers who enjoy it every day.  My heart grows each day for every one of my "STARS" as they grow."

Jackie Chambers.

Jessica Shearon- Full Assistant teacher

 

 I have danced with S.T.A.R.S.  since Miss Jackie opened her studio at her parents home 18 years ago. I am now a 25 year old mom of two. Life at stars has become my life and I wouldn't have it any other way.I love my dance studio and dance family with my heart and soul. I feel blessed to be an assistant  with  stars dancers of ALL ages and hope my love and passion can be passed on through each and every one of them. Dance is more than a hobby for me it is my life.

Emily Dew - Assistant Teacher

     I started dancing at the age of 2 and continued until the age of 20. In my early 20's I was even fortunate enough to dance for a sports team in California for a short time. Dance has always been a huge part of my life and a true passion for me, even after getting married and having kids, I take classes whenever possible just for fun. I am a military wife and mom of 3 girls. We met Miss Jackie and STARS when we moved back to Clarksville in 2016 and were looking for a studio to start my oldest daughter in. We have been here every since. All 3 girls love dancing here and STARS has truly become our home away from home. I am so excited to start this journey and to teach the littles and share the joy of dance!
