OUR STORY

Founded by Pam Harrold on October 1, 1984.

Pamelot started as a small, one room studio offering Ballet, Tap, and Jazz. By the spring of 1985 the enrollment grew to 120 class hours per week, with three new teachers added to the staff. Along with this addition of teachers, Pamelot was able to add Combination classes for 3-6 year olds, Modern, Musical Theater, Hip Hop, Swing, and a Teacher Assistant Training program. Pamelot was remodeled in 1990 for the fall season.
The remodel added a large dance room, a small dance apparel boutique, and a waiting area for students and parents. The interior design was changed to create open class rooms with plants and open view windows. The remodel was made possible through the generosity of Leo and Eileen French. Leo and Eileen are the founders of Placer Title Company. Since 1990 the Pamelot Family has grown. We now reach hundreds of dancers and their loved ones in the Auburn and greater surrounding area. Pam's daughter, Debbi Sampson is managing the studio now. She loves that Pamelot has the honor of having families with four generations still dancing and supporting Pamelot and the Auburn community. Pam and Debbi believe that everyone can dance if they have a dream. Pamelot is extremely thankful for their love of the performing arts, and their desire to make our community a better place to live.
