Classes and Descriptions
It is important to us that your children be placed in the appropriate level classes where they can develop their technique at a safe and consistent pace, and feel confident in their dancing and abilities.
Dancers should use their age as of September 30, 2024 for enrollment, unless they have been cleared by instructor to enroll in an alternate level. As instructors, we know there can be varying levels of age/ability in each class. It is our job
to continuously be evaluating your child through the year to be sure they are being
challenged and developing individually as dancers in their appropriate class.
