ABOUT US...
The Kristin Butke School(KBS) was established in 2003 in Nashville, Tennessee. Since then, the school has opened up to dancers in Oklahoma. KBS holds 9 Regional titles, dancers that have placed in the top 5 at the National level, as well as World Qualifiers and World Medalists.
We have chosen the Celtic Tree of Life symbol to represent our school and beliefs. The tree of life symbolizes roots, growth, and development. The Trinity is the basis of the tree. The tree is divine and sacred to all ancient cultures. It is honored as the giver of all life. It is a source of wisdom and hope. As the tree grows both above and below ground, it denotes an enduring link between the upper and lower worlds: a connection between Heaven and Earth. It is a reminder of the eternal cycle of life. The tree is a universal symbol of life, it represents the union of woman and man and its branches bear fruit. The Celtic Tree of Life stems from and finishes with the same knot, signifying the cyclical nature of life.
