Tuition

Through our youth programs, we strive to provide the best dance experience for you and your children. We offer a well rounded curriculum designed to expose students to the diverse world of dance. Our younger students explore the many physical, artistic and creative skills inherent in learning dance. For older children and teens, specific technique classes teach the basics of ballet, jazz, tap, modern, hip hop and other dance forms to provide the solid background needed for the dance enthusiast. Our YouthDance Intensive Program provides a structured training program for aspiring dancers interested in making dance a primary focus, and our youth dance companies provide opportunities to aspiring young performers.
