Multiple generations of San Antonio dancers have learned ballet, tap and more at this family-owned business.
Dena Mabry isn’t sure why her grandparents chose to open the Earle Cobb Dance Studio in the uncertainty of the 1920s, but the fact that it survived gave her a way to rally her staff when COVID-19 forced them to pause in-person classes. “When my staff was panicking, as everyone was, about the pandemic, I was like, 'You guys, we’re going to figure this out.
” Mabry has poked around a bit to try to find other family-owned dance studios across the country that have held on for as long as hers has or even longer, and hasn’t found any. She said when she mentions the age of the studio in online chats with other folks in the field, some assume she means 9.5 years and not 95. “It’s really hard to wrap your head around,” she said.
