RETIREMENT ANNOUNCEMENT
With the new year comes new opportunities, changes, and growth. The time has come for Kim Bradley to transition into retirement. During the next month, you will see some new faces at By Grace. We assure you that things will operate as normal as possible and we appreciate your patience and support during this time. Antoine Thomas will be taking over the partnership with Miss Vanessa. Kellie Cromley will be the new Office Manager/Director. The future looks bright and the possibilities are endless!
Originally from NY, Antoine R. Thomas has been performing, creating, directing and teaching dance for two decades, and has extensive experience in working with both adults and children. He has owned and operated the DanceLife Center since 2010, with two locations in Illinois, and a third in St. Louis. Despite the demands of managing three studios and a faculty of 16, Antoine remains deeply connected to his art. He still finds time to share his expertise, teaching ballet and hip-hop classes and lending his creative vision to schools and dance communities. For Antoine, dance is more than just movement—it’s a transformative experience that has the power to change lives. His mission is to make this experience accessible to all, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to discover the joy and fulfillment that dance can bring. With degrees from Eastern Illinois University and a background in instructional technology, Antoine combines his love for dance with a keen understanding of how to effectively teach and inspire others.
“Hello. My name is Kellie Cromley. I have a husband named Craig, and four awesome kiddos. I have been involved in the dance world for over 15 years and actively working the past 7 years. My passion includes anything where I am able to utilize my creativity. I am excited to join the team at By Grace and meet and get to know each of you more.”
A quote from Kim “I am truly blessed to have had the opportunity to serve this community in my position for nearly 22 years and watch our students grow and thrive. I am beyond grateful for the wonderful students, parents, and employees that I have met and have had the privilege of working alongside. You will all forever be a part of my life. I am proud of what this studio has to offer our small town and look forward to seeing its continued success!”
