Miss Reyana

Reyana Wright, Owner & CEO

From pirouettes in the living room to becoming a beacon of dance education in Los Angeles, Reyana Wright’s life has always been a dance. Since starting ballet and tap at the age of two, her journey has been driven by a passion for excellence, self-expression, and the belief that dance can empower communities.

A background in marketing and production, including co-founding a creative agency, equipped Reyana with the unique blend of artistic vision and business acumen needed to turn her dream into a reality. In 2015, that dream became Reach For The Barres, a haven for young dancers aged 18 months to 18 years.

Now, as we celebrate our 11th season, Reyana’s mission has come to life through a decade of dedication in the heart of Atwater Village. She has successfully built an incredible studio culture and a wonderful community, rooted in the core values of kindness, communication, and joy. Her leadership is a testament to the idea that dance is more than movement – it is a journey of self-discovery and connection. Under her guidance, Reach For The Barres has become a place where every student feels seen, valued, and ready to reach for their own dreams.

Outside the studio, Reyana’s creative energy flows into her other passions: discovering new coffee shops, adding stamps to her passport, cheering on her favorite F1 drivers, and spending time with her husband and their two delightful dogs, Birdie and Foxy (a mini Schnauzer and rescue Yorkie).
