If you catch a dancer young enough, you can teach them technique.

With time, a dance instructor can change a young student’s muscles and how their body turns out, increase their flexibility and train their feet, legs, and back to stretch farther.Those dancers with a drive and passion for dance – even if their technique is not the best – will likely go further than the best technical dancer who has no passion.

Solomon has turned over the reins of the Dothan dance school to her daughter, Ashlie Wells. Solomon’s Enterprise School of Dance has been sold to Christina Hardy, a fellow instructor and a board member of the Southeast Alabama Dance Company. She started dancing when she was 8 years old at Inez’s School of Dance – a one-room dance studio located near Cherokee Avenue and West Main Street. When she was 11, she came under the tutelage of Dothan School of Dance’s original owner. By 15, she was teaching dance classes at the school and hit the road to teach at different locations when she was 16.

“I was so young; I had so much to learn,” Solomon said. “I learned so many lessons the hard way... I burned a lot of bridges when I was young. I learned a lot of lessons growing up that I’ll never forget. I believe it’s God’s purpose to put things into your life to make you smarter, to make you more knowledgeable, and I still am learning lessons every day about this business.”

With a black and white checkered exterior, the 16,000-square-foot Dothan school has five studios, and runs 85 dance classes a week for 360 students. From the brightly-painted interior to the geometric floor designs, the office throne chairs, and opulent furnishings in the lobby, the school was decorated with Solomon’s tastes in mind and to make young dancers feel happy upon entering. The decorator knew Solomon personally.
