A dance instructor in Raleigh pleaded guilty to five counts of felony child abuse, according to court documents reported by WRAL.

The instructor, Alyssa Edwards, was connected to several dance studios across North Carolina, including one in Raleigh. She was arrested in 2024 on charges related to indecent liberties with a minor.

Under a plea agreement, prosecutors dropped charges of statutory rape and indecent liberties against Edwards. She received a sentence of six to eight months in prison, followed by three years of supervised probation.

The case was handled in a New Hanover County court, and the guilty pleas were entered earlier this week, as WRAL reported.
