About

Tami Redd Knubel began dancing at the age of 3 with Virginia Tanner Creative Dance at the University of Utah. She later studied with Pearl Wagstaff-Garff at the Life Arts Center, ballet training at The Christensen Center, and during high school, she danced with Tanner’s Children’s Dance Theatre. Tami completed two majors at Brigham Young University, obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Modern Dance and Social Work. After working for several years with The Utah Division of Child and Family Services, she returned to her love of dance, teaching at the Life Arts Center and serving as Co-Director of Miss Pearl’s Dancer’s Theatre Company, as well as a dance specialist with The Waterford School’s Lower Division. In 2004, she opened South Valley Creative Dance in Sandy, UT and now co-owns SVCD with four other amazing and dedicated artists. Since 2022, she has enjoyed teaching Repertory Dance Theatre’s “Music in Motion” program at area senior centers. In 2024, Tami began serving as Dance Specialist for Repertory Dance Theatre’s Arts-in-Education program, as well as continuing to teach Music in Motion.  She feels incredible gratitude to be able to work in the art of dance with populations ranging in age from 2 to 90+. She loves to remind her students that we are ALL dancers…some of us just need to be reminded…bringing a new world of immense joy into daily living!
