Every Dancer Has a Blueprint. We Bring It to Life.
Meet the Founder & Lead Instructor
Patrice Lee is a passionate dance educator, choreographer, and national dance competition adjudicator with over 10 years of experience teaching both recreational and competitive programs across the East Coast. Originally from Maryland, she brings the energy, discipline, and precision of her Northern training to Georgia’s dance community.
​
She firmly believes dance is unique because it is both an art form and a sport. Not only is it a sport, but an elite one where athletes inspire, amaze, and dominate. Success in dance is the perfect blend of artistry, athleticism, and heart.
​
Patrice is proficient in all dance styles but specializes in jazz, lyrical, contemporary, and jazz technique including leaps, turns, and flexibility. She has choreographed numerous award-winning routines recognized for technical excellence, creativity, and performance quality. Her teaching style emphasizes strong foundations, consistency, and confidence, helping every dancer reach their potential while developing discipline and joy in the process.
​
Outside the studio, Patrice draws inspiration from her professional background in construction project management, where structure, planning, and vision are key. The name Blueprint reflects her belief that every dancer, like every great design, needs a solid foundation to thrive. She loves crafting something extraordinary from the ground up, whether it is a dancer discovering their individuality or a team finding its rhythm.
​
Patrice’s philosophy is simple: dance should build more than skill; it should build character. Her classrooms are filled with energy, encouragement, and accountability, creating an environment where students feel supported, challenged, and inspired to perform boldly and fearlessly both in dance and in life!
Vision
To inspire a dance community where excellence, artistry, and confidence thrive at every level.

Our goal is to shape resilient, confident, and creative performers who carry the lessons of dance into every part of life.
