Peggy Anne Hannemann began her career by chance in Fredericksburg, Texas in the 1940's. As a junior in high school, she was an acrobat with the Fredericksburg High School Band. Her cousin asked her to teach her to dance, and by the next Friday, she had five little girls waiting in line to learn to dance. Eventually her mom volunteered to play the piano, and the two officially began Peggy Anne Dance Studio. It was while in Fredericksburg that Peggy began Dance Capers Dance Recital to showcase her students' dancing skills.

| The studio moved to Kerrville in 1954, and now is home to over 200 students learning a variety of dance styles. Peggy Anne, now 82 years young, is still the heart and soul of the studio. Peggy Anne's legacy lives on through CeCe and the amazing staff at the studio.

Peggy Anne's daughter, CeCe Jean Saunders has been teaching dance with her mother for over 30 years. CeCe grew up dancing in the studio and began teaching when she was in middle school. She started the Kerrville Cougars, a competitive cheer and dance program, over 13 years ago and she teaches lyrical, ballet, and non-competitive cheer.
