Stacy Runkle

Lead Cheer and Tumble Instructor

We’re delighted to welcome Miss Stacy back to NCDA. Stacy began her dance career at NCDMA at four years old in all styles of dance.  She was a member of NCDMA’s Dancesations Performing Group and was selected to perform at the Galaxy Palace Theatre in Disney World. Miss Stacy was cast as the lead performer of “Clara” for our Ballet Company, Ballet Elite of Delaware performing the Russian version of The Nutcracker.

Miss Stacy received a scholarship to Wilmington University for Cheerleading and won the College National Championship.  She is currently the assistant coach at Wilmington University and during that time the cheer team has won 8 National Championships.  Following in her footsteps, her 8-year-old daughter has been at the academy since she was 20 months old and is a member of our competitive dance team.

Miss Stacy is an enthusiastic elementary teacher at MOT Charter and it is evident in her teaching methods, where she brings structure and joy to all her students.
