Since 1979, Music General has been a dance studio committed to the philosophy that a dancer’s eduction should consist of precise, technical training and a chance to grow, be inspired and to perform as an artist should. Music General is passionately committed to providing all dancers with the highest quality dance education in a fun, family-friendly environment. Out professional staff is well trained, with over 40 years of experience in the dance industry. We believe that through caring, detail oriented instruction, every dancer can be inspired to find the creativity inside himself/herself. We feel strongly that dance promotes confidence, self-respect, teamwork and discipline while contributing to a dancer’s physical and emotional health. Music General wants to inspire a lasting love for dance through artistic excellence, ample performance opportunities and superb educational instruction.

We are deeply heartbroken and grieving for the loss of one of our Music General dance family members. Tamie Swanson was a dance mom, Music General employee and wonderful friend to all of us at the studio. She was an amazing teacher to many of our dancers and a fantastic cheerleader to all children- dancers or not. We are at a loss for words when we try to articulate how immeasurably she will be missed by all of us. 💔💔 Our hearts and love go out to (Miss) Randie Blumhagen (former MG dancer & teacher), Hal Swanson (one of our original Dancin Dads) and Cam Swanson during this time of loss and sadness. We love you and hope you know that your Music General family is thinking of you and sending love and comfort to you. Please keep this wonderful family in your hearts today and in the days moving forward. ❤️❤️
Such an incredible lady! Layla is heartbroken. I know she was struggling at dance last night… this is why. Tamie was her first teacher at Baxter and such an inspiring gal for all who met her. 💕
I’m so sad to hear this! My thoughts and prayers go out to you Randie Blumhagen ! You and your family are sweet and caring beyond words. I’m so sorry for your loss . 😢💔

Sympathy to all. So sorry for your loss. ❤️
Oh my! I’m sorry to hear this. Our paths crossed many times at district meetings and committees. She was always so upbeat and friendly no matter the circumstance. My thoughts are with you and her family.❤️
Blessings to her family🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
