Ages 3 and up. Our pre-k combo class is geared towards 3-5 year olds and is a great way to start your dancer's journey by covering both ballet and tap each week. We also have adult tap and hip-hop classes!

No, we do not allow observers inside the studio during class time.
We do have windows in a couple of the rooms so parents can see some of the classes we offer (the pre-k combos have windows), but we have found it is VERY distracting to have parents in the window and can affect the children's learning experience. We do offer a parent observation week in November for the dancers to show parents what we do in class!
-
Not necessarily. Our recitals are optional, but typically, every dancer participates in the spring recital since it is the climax of the year and it's a fun and exciting way for dancers to finally showcase their skills in a professional show! Also, once we near the recital date, most class time will be used to work on choreography for the show.
-
Yes. Turns & leaps and Acro classes are technique only and do not perform in the spring recital.
-
No! We keep our schedule and rosters the same from September through May. If you need to adjust the schedule or add/drop any classes, please email Miss Kelcy and she can assist you.
-
Yes! However, many classes will be full and since they stay the same from the fall, we cannot guarantee a spot. If there is space available in a class, you can register in January. We cannot accept any students after January 31 for recital classes though, because costumes will have already been ordered.
-
Currently we only offer private lessons for students already enrolled in a class.
-
The class fees are determined by the length of class. A 45 minute class that meets weekly is $145 per semester and a 60 minute + class is $165 per semester. Each additional class you enroll for is discounted.
-
No, we do not offer any partnering classes.
