Friendswood-based Chara Christian Dance Academy will open a second location in January at 1570 Old Alvin Road, Pearland.

More than a decade after opening in 2007, the business was looking to open a new spot in 2020, but plans fell through, founder Shanna Kirkpatrick said in a video on the academy’s website. The goal is for the new spot to provide more classrooms and training opportunities.

The first location is at 101 Hunters Lane, Friendswood.
