Kids Dance Class FAQs

We welcome children starting at 18 months for toddler classes, and our standard kids programs begin at age 4. Research consistently shows that early dance training builds coordination, rhythm, focus, and social skills — the sooner, the better.

Not at all. The majority of our students start with zero dance experience. We have beginner-level classes for every age group. Your child will be placed in the right class based on their age and current skill level.

Absolutely. Boys are welcome in all of our classes. Hip-hop, acro, jazz, and contemporary are especially popular with our male students. We also have boys on our competitive team (MDC).

Yes! We hold an annual spring recital every May/June. All recreational and company students perform. Recital participation is included for enrolled students — it's one of the most exciting events of the year for our families.
