About Stacy Sieg

Owner/Director

stacy@encorestudioofdance.com

Born and raised in Cudahy, Stacy started her dancing through the South Milwaukee Recreational Department and came to ENCORE STUDIO OF DANCE at the age of seven under the leadership of the studio’s founder, Lee (Burke) Harbon, who became her mentor. Lee instilled her passion of dance, stage poise and enthusiam with constant encouragement and most of all presenting her with new challenges enabling Stacy to become a well rounded dancer and performer. To this day Lee still offers her advice and encouragement. She truly is the one who taught us how to dance among the stars!

As Stacy grew older, Kris (Puetz) Shabla came into her life as the new owner of ENCORE STUDIO OF DANCE. She took the time to work with and molded Stacy to become a teacher as well and continually pushing her to new heights making her even more passionate for dance.

Through Stacy's student career at ENCORE STUDIO OF DANCE, she became the youngest member in studio history to make SHOWCASE while in fifth grade. The following year she was asked to become an assistant teacher and was also given additional parts and solos in the recitals. Upon graduating Cudahy High School in 1996, Stacy joined the ENCORE STUDIO OF DANCE Staff as an instructor. She had been Co-Owner for five years prior and now entering her 2nd year as Sole Owner.

Dancing has always been a part of Stacy's life. From the ages of 7-13 she was a competitive roller skater at Rollaero Skate Center in Cudahy, WI. traveling all over the country competing in several different areas, placing 1st at the State level and 4th at the Regional level in different categories.

"As long as I can remember, I have always wanted to have my own studio and now I have achieved that goal. (I guess all the dancing and tapping down the store aisles really paid off ☺). I was involved in many competitive sports throughout my gradeschool - highschool years, volleyball, basketball, softball….I know how difficult and stressful it can be, but I always loved to come to dance class as it would give me a calming and peaceful feeling to just come and be myself with no pressure or judgment. It was a place to learn but also a place to have fun! A place to laugh and enjoy the gift of dance, music and movement. I realize that not all dancers have the same feeling as I do, but if I can give them a feeling of confidence and make them feel good and proud of themselves, then I will have accomplished my goal as a dance studio owner and as a mentor. Thanks to all who continue to help make my dreams come true!!"
