Let their light SHINE!

Within us lies a radiant glow, illuminating our purpose and path when nurtured. Our innate talents are gifts to the world, empowering us to create and inspire positive change.


InnerSpark embraces the joy and enthusiasm of creative dance classes, where we nurture your child's artistic expression through individual interpretation, imagination, and personal creativity in movement. We create an environment that encourages your dancer to explore their own unique movements, ideas, and emotions, enabling them to express themselves freely and authentically.


In our creative dance classes, improvisation takes center stage, allowing your dancer to spontaneously respond to music, imagery, or prompts (without rigid choreography). This approach fosters self-discovery, body awareness, and the development of gross motor skills in your child. These foundational skills not only contribute to their success in academics but also in dance technique classes and sports.

Who We Are

At the peak of the global pandemic in October 2021, InnerSpark Performing Arts was founded by Mark and Christie Gonzalez.  Recognizing the challenges faced by working parents to provide high-quality enrichment programs for their very young children, the Gonzalez’ identified the necessity for a unique and fun early childhood dance program, all within the secure environment of preschools, early childhood centers, and childcare facilities.  In 2022, our first partnership with Masterpiece Christian Academy was born.


Mark, a 32 year public school educator, is an proud alumni of UTRGV and currently serves as the head football coach and athletic coordinator at Juarez Lincoln High School in La Joya Independent School  District. Christie is a proud graduate of UTRGV, a former public school educator, and was privileged to serve as a 21st Century grant administrator for IDEA Public Schools where she was named a state ambassador by The Afterschool Alliance. She is currently a member of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the Texas Association for the Education of Young Children (TXAEYC), the National Dance Education Organization (NDEO), is a Discover Dance licensee, and was recently awarded a scholarship for the The Life is Good Playmaker Project’s Playmaker University.
