Our 7-week summer classes will allow students to come and take classes for a shorter period of time in a flexible setting. We understand that some of you may be going away for some time to do some traveling/vacationing, so our summer classes do not require strict attendance. This way, your children will be able to keep moving and grooving this summer and continue with what they have started.
We offer summer classes for toddlers, age 2 years old to adults. Classes will primarily work on improving technique for the older ones and creative play through music and movement for younger ones.
There is also the opportunity for your children to try new dance styles that they may be interested this summer
