DANCE
These 45-minute-long classes are held in our upstairs dance studio with full mirrors, an observation area, and a sprung dance floor. Classes combine barre, center, across-the-floor, rhythm, and choreography work. Dancers will explore movement and learn ballet and dance terminology. Watch your child gain confidence, self-esteem, and independence.
Dancers in our program are eligible to participate in our Winter Recital and June Recital. Recitals are an amazing opportunity for your dancer to show off their hard-earned skills, develop stage presence, and share the excitement of performing in front of an audience.
