Young Dancers Program News

Dancers have been learning variations of the BrainDance as part of their weekly class warm-ups. Each BrainDance focuses on eight types of movement such as breath, vestibular, and cross-lateral. Some of the benefits of BrainDance include better proprioception, balance, attention, memory, eye-tracking, behavior, sensory integration, and motor skills. Dancers are also moving through a concept-based curriculum that allows dancers of all ages and stages to be challenged as developmentally appropriate. Currently, we are exploring the concepts of levels, directions, and size and having so much fun along the way!

When the fall sports season ends, it's time

to return to the

dance studio!

Enrollment is open for select classes in our children and teen programs. We offer a wide variety of classes in hip hop, jazz, ballet, modern, tap, contemporary, and more for students ages 2 & and up in a welcoming and non-competitive environment.
