Mrs. Eaton (Alisa Eaton) – Executive Director
Reflections of Grace Performing Arts School is celebrating it’s 16th year with Alisa Eaton as director and ballet teacher. Alisa is wife to Ed and mother of four, Abigail, Zachary, Luke, and Patrick. Prior to Reflections of Grace Performing Arts School, her parents invested in her God given ability to dance in early childhood, she was quickly given an opportunity to student teach and eventually taught her own classes by the time she was 14. Her love of dance and her love for Christ made the perfect match in inspiring young children to dance and worship for Christ alone.
Miss Jane – Teacher
Miss Jane grew up dancing in some of the earliest ballet classes at Reflections of Grace. In high school, she began taking upper level technique and point classes at another studio where she honed in on her technical and teaching skills. She has since retuned to ROG and now teaches upper level ballet, lyrical, and pre-pointe classes. Miss Jane is also a certified personal trainer and a dedicated full-time college student at UW-Oshkosh. She enjoys traveling abroad, line dancing, and helping lead college ministries at UWO.
Miss Lauryn – Teacher
Miss Lauryn began taking ballet when she was three, and has continued dancing since then. She began student teaching Little Ones classes when she was 13, and is now a lead teacher for upper levels. She likes getting to know her students and watching them grow and learn throughout each semester. Her favorite type of dance to teach is lyrical because she loves connecting movement with emotions in her song lyrics. Outside of dance she loves to travel to different countries, hiking, hanging out with friends, and singing.
Miss Rachel – Teacher
Miss Rachel started taking ballet, jazz, and lyrical classes when she was 11 years old. When she was 12 she started student teaching and loved it! She started teaching 6 classes through a daycare. She has 8 siblings in her family, 4 of them were adopted and have special needs. She loves student teaching adaptive dance classes with Mrs. Eaton at ARC.

Miss Olivet – Teacher
Miss Olivet started dancing in 2021, when she was 9 years old. She began student teaching when she was 12, and is now a lead teacher for younger dance students. She loves teaching and getting to know each of the students’ personalities and giving them a chance to get their energy out after a long day. Dancing is an escape to her, and she loves learning technique and becoming a stronger dancer even in the smaller details. When she is not in the studio, she enjoys being outside, and creating art.
