Babies and Toddlers

A joyful first step into the world of dance! Our baby and toddler classes are designed to build connection, coordination, and confidence through movement, music, and fun. Caregivers join the action in Move With Me, while Intro to Dance offers a more independent experience for our tiniest dancers ready to explore on their own.

Fun 2 Dance Pre-K and Kindergarten

These energetic, age-appropriate classes are the perfect mix of fun and foundational skills! In Tap/Ballet, dancers explore rhythm, movement, and creativity while building early technique. In Flip Hop, kids get moving with a dynamic blend of tumbling and hip hop, perfect for channeling energy and learning control through movement.

Both class styles are designed to introduce young dancers to the structure of a classroom environment, while encouraging self-expression and teamwork. Along the way, students build not only physical coordination—but also confidence, connection, and a love for learning through dance.

Junior Foundations

Our two-day Junior Foundations program is designed for dancers ready to take the next step in their training. With core classes in tap, ballet, jazz, and lyrical, students build a strong foundation in both technique and artistry. Optional add-ons in acro and hip hop provide additional variety and challenge for growing dancers.

But Junior Foundations is about more than just dance steps. Through integrated leadership training, goal setting, and team-building experiences, students begin to develop life skills that will serve them far beyond the studio. Each dancer is supported not only in their physical progress, but in their ability to show responsibility, focus, resilience, and collaboration.
