Plan your practice

Find classes that fit your schedule and your dancer

Our classes are formatted to teach the art, beauty, and safety of dance for the moving body. We teach students to stretch and strengthen their bodies safely rather than forcing anything. We believe that strength rooted in safe anatomical body knowledge will result in lifelong, strong dancers. Our age-appropriate levels and curriculum build technique in dancers to create strong, creative, healthy, young performers. Many of our dancers go on to study dance in college as well as perform, choreograph, and teach professionally post-college.
