PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES & PHILOSOPHY

Creative Dance and Pre-Dance Division:

Our Creative Dance Students (ages 3-5) and Pre-dance divisions (ages 5-7) will do an end of year performance in the studio the last week of our Spring session. Why don’t we put them on the stage yet? We believe young children should have the opportunity to explore their movement potential without the constraints, cost and stressful demands of a big performance. 

Children and Junior/Teen Division:

Students in our Children’s division (ages 8-10) and our Junior/Teen division (ages 11-14) perform in a theatre recital There is extra cost involved with the theatre recital: Approximately $75 costume fee for classes that need costumes purchased. There will also be a ticket fee for recital attendees to cover the cost of the theater rental.
