Chelsea Myers
Hi, I'm Chelsea Myers! I've grown up dancing at All That Dance under the direction of my mom, Darcy Leavitt and have been an instructor for 20 years. I've taught ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, hip hop, pointe, and have coached hundreds of girls on our competition teams. I've taught dozens of students from preschool all the way up through high school. I have won several choreography awards and my dances have placed in regional and national competitions. As a student, I took multiple hours of classes per week and competed for 10 years. I traveled all across the country, taking workshops and performing in Las Vegas, Disney World, and The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade to name a few. As a young adult, I was a part of three professional dance companies where I performed at many local events, an art museum, and a commercial for Honda. Currently I work hard trying to evolve and improve my knowledge of dance and teaching methods. I have so much passion sharing my love and knowledge of dance with my students! When I'm not teaching, I am spending time with my husband Kyle and our three, wonderful kids - Kian, Carson, and Avelyn.
Olivia Staples
My name is Olivia Staples and I’m an Alumni of All that dance and Co-founder of the Darcy Leavitt Senior Scholarship. My goal as your teacher/coach is to give each student a quality dance education. To dance is to have JOY and that’s what I aspire to give!
I studied at the studio from 2000-2012. I studied mostly ballet, point, jazz, and lyrical under Darcy Leavitt and hip hop under Andrea Sharron! I was an assistant teacher to Andrea Sharron for beginner and intermediate hip hop from 2008-2012. I was active on the competition team. Some of my fondest memories were competing with my teammates and winning many titles, special awards and scholarships. One you may see in room two with our “Solo Por Ti” number that is memorialized on the wall in photographs.
I minored with dance in college at the University of Maine at Orono. I studied ballet, jazz and hip hop 3x per week for 4 years. My ballet professor took me in my junior year to be a soloist in the Robinson Ballet for their season of the Nutcracker. We traveled all over Maine and at the University; we performed with a live orchestra. The 2026-2027 season I am teaching beginner ballet, advanced ballet/point, advanced jazz, adult jazz and a competitive ballet team.
Bethany Petrin
Hi! I'm Bethany Petrin. Ive been dancing for 20 years, 12 of those spent with ATD. I have experience in ballet, pointe, jazz, tap, contemporary/lyrical and trained as a gymnast for several years. I danced competitively for 8 years before graduating and now enjoy my time dancing with the alumni at our yearly recitals. I also performed with Portland School of Ballet in their Victorian Nutcracker! I also graduated last year with a degree in Health Sciences with future hopes of pursing my bachelors in social work. I coach our competitive Acro teams as well as teach our rec level classes. I absolutely love working with students on skills they want so badly and seeing all the hard work pay off each year. I look forward to another great season full of new students, new skills, and creating new pieces!
Amy Raymond
Hi, my name is Amy Raymond, and I’ve loved dancing since I was 6 years old. I am so excited to be back for my 6th season as a teacher at All That Dance! I’ve trained in the styles of ballet, pointe, jazz, lyrical, and contemporary, but ballet is my all-time favorite. I danced for All That Dance’s competitive dance team throughout high school and have since been able to work on my own choreography for competitive numbers and recital dances. Outside of dance, I work in psychiatric health care and am pursuing my master's in counseling and art therapy. I can’t wait to see new and familiar faces on the dance floor this season!
