Youth Dance

 

YOUTH DANCE CLASSES

These multi-level dance classes are geared towards American dance styles, such as Broadway-based numbers, jazz, modern dance and even hip-hop. The goal is to promote a positive body image, learn some basic and mid-level dance moves and introduce youth to the wonderful world of dance.

Experience 6 full weeks of lyrical, tap and ballet in a fun-filled atmosphere!  This structured program is designed for early development of technical ballet and movement.  It precisely meets needs and limitations of pre-schoolers by providing a carefully paced sequence of exercises to develop physical conditioning with poise and grace.
