Casco Bay Movers Dance Studio
Open enrollment for our last 7-week session of the year opens Thursday, April 6
Join us for our final
7-week session of the 2022/2023 season.

Our classes are designed to introduce children to the creative and expressive world of dance!
Each program offers children the opportunity to develop their natural movement ability in a multi-sensory environment.
Music, movement, visuals, and props will enhance your dancer’s love of the art form, and the unique conceptual approach to dance education will provide a strong foundation for technical and cognitive growth.

7-week Series: $95 per session (no registration fee)
Did you know that all of our young dancers' classes warm up with the Brain Dance, which was created by Anne Green Gilbert? Check out this fantastic article, Building a better brain through music, dance and poetry that was featured on NPR this week!
Summer Dance Camp Scholarships
Casco Bay Movers, Portland Youth Dance, and special guests CMAC Dance Company, Art Moves, Bower Dance, and the Moving Company Dance Troupe presented a lovely show on March 26 to help raise funds for summer dance camp scholarships for students in need. Thanks to your generous support of this performance, we met our goal of raising funds to provide three summer dance camp scholarships! Casco Bay Movers has provided a matching grant of three additional summer dance camp scholarships for 7-18-year-old students.


Applications are also available at the front desk.

Company in residence, little house dance, presents "quiet the marks & pull | tirer."
April 13-15 at Cove Steet Arts
This spring, little house dance is partnering with Cove Street Arts to present "quiet the marks & pull | tirer." These two duets are remounts of work that were made by Heather Stewart in collaboration with composer Marc Bartissol. Rather than creating an exact replica of what these works once were, they have been taken apart and rebuilt into something new. Please come and experience this very special performance dedicated to the memory of Marc Bartissol.
