DANA 
ADAMES

Talent Factory owner and Director of The Talent Factory Dance Company, Dana has spent the last 40+ years in the performing arts business being born into her mom’s studio. She lived and breathed dance from the day she was born.  Not only did this help develop her potential as a dancer at a young age, it also inspired her creativity as a teacher and studio owner. Dana has been teaching and choreographing since the age of 14. Dance is a passion for Dana as reflected in her positive, outgoing personality and ability to build esteem and efficacy in every child she meets. She has trained with some of the best in the business and offers the same opportunities to her students by traveling with her company to conventions and competitions all over the east coast. The Talent Factory Dance and Theatre Company has won numerous titles and prestigious awards for their impeccable technique, choreography, and sportsmanship. Dana has produced for the Miss Rhode Island America pageant where she used her company dancers as pageant performers. Dana takes pride in offering creative classes as she helps develop her students to reach their optimal potential and continues to be a role model and inspiration to her all her students!

The Block Party is a new project Dana and husband Hugo are very passionate about. They hope to grow this into many events which can give back to the performing arts community while connecting artists from all over the world with the todays aspiring youth.
