The Dance Academy Classes

The Dance Academy offers instruction in many different genres of dance. 

Dancers age 2 enroll in Creative Movement which is a 6 week at a time, non-recital class. 

Dancers ages 3-5 enroll in an Intro class.  

Dancers ages 6 & up have a variety of classes in which to choose.  

Those with no experience start with Level 1 classes (if class has multi-levels) and then are evaluated by instructor to check  

class placement is correct.

*Dancers who wish to excel in dance should enroll in both ballet and jazz classes which will focus on teaching dance technique and building a strong foundation for dance.  See class descriptions below.
