REGISTRATION

Registration is ongoing until a particular class fills up.  Please click here to register.  More information about tracks, levels, pricing, and schedules can be found below.​

​

TRACKS

There are two distinct tracks a student can pursue: Recreational Dance and Company Dance. Both tracks allow students to grow in their love of dance, with options to suit different levels of interest and commitment.

 

Recreational Dance Track
This option is perfect for students who enjoy dancing and want a fun, once-a-week class. Recreational dancers will perform in the end-of-year recital and may have the chance to participate in special performances, such as The Nutcracker.

 

Company Dance Track
The Company track is for dancers seeking a more intensive experience. Company dancers train several times per week, attend rehearsals outside of class, and perform in multiple events throughout the year—including The Nutcracker, outdoor performances, the recital, and possibly a showcase featuring their own choreography. Admission to the Company requires an audition.

​​

LEVELS

Classes are grouped according to particular ages and levels.  Levels describe the particular experience and technical proficiency that a student ought to possess in order to participate in the class.

​

Preschool Ballet/Tap
A fun and creative introduction to ballet and tap designed for our youngest dancers. Focus is on basic motor skills, rhythm, and coordination.

​

Level I – Ballet/Tap
For dancers who have developed basic motor skills and are ready to build foundational ballet and tap technique.

 

Level II
Ideal for dancers with prior experience in ballet, tap, or jazz. Students should be familiar with basic terminology and movement vocabulary.

​

Level III
Designed for more experienced dancers who have taken several years of dance. Students should know all barre exercises and be comfortable executing center and across-the-floor combinations. Often suitable for younger company-level dancers.

​

Level IV
A transition class from intermediate to advanced. Dancers should be confident in class structure, have a solid foundation in turns (like pirouettes), and be working on more complex jumps and movement sequences.

​

Level V
Advanced-level dancers who have strong technique, control, and performance quality. Students should be able to quickly learn, remember, and perform extended combinations with precision and artistry.
