There are jazz dance classes for kids and teens starting at the beginner level and moving all the way up to advanced. Younger students can start out in tippy, jumpstart, or beginner jazz classes, where they learn the basics and build a foundation. As they get older and more skilled, they can enroll in intermediate and advanced jazz classes with more challenging choreography, technique, and performance skills. There’s a clear path for progress, so as students improve, they’re able to move into higher-level classes and learn more complex moves. Some programs pair jazz with styles like musical theatre or acro, which means dancers enrolled in those classes are also required to take jazz. Trial classes are available for families who would like to try jazz before committing.
Contemporary dance classes here are for students who already have some foundational dance experience. Offered exclusively to our advanced and senior level dancers, these lessons focus on expanding movement vocabulary, musicality, and expressive performance skills. As dancers progress, they build on core techniques in modern and lyrical. Student progress is tracked throughout the year, and instructors give guidance on how to move forward. Beginner dancers are encouraged to start with ballet or jazz to build a strong technical foundation, and to progress into contemporary as they grow and advance.
Acro dance classes are offered for students interested in learning tumbling, flexibility, and strength skills combined with dance. To enroll in acro, students do need to register for a jazz class at the same time. This helps make sure dancers have the right foundation in technique and movement for acro skills. Both beginner and more advanced levels are available, so students can join based on their experience.
Dance lessons help kids build confidence by giving them the chance to master new skills, perform in front of others, and receive positive feedback from supportive teachers. Classes are a team effort, so students get to work with peers, make friends, and practice listening, taking turns, and encouraging each other. Each program is designed to support kids at their individual level, making sure everyone feels comfortable stepping out of their comfort zone. Special performance opportunities and leadership programs, like the Student Teaching Program or the Student of Character awards, let students practice communication and teamwork while celebrating their progress. All of this happens in a structured but fun environment where kids feel respected and included, helping them build valuable social skills while growing as dancers.

Kids as young as 15 months up to 18 years old can join classes, with programs divided by age and skill level.

Tap dance classes are available for both children and teens, and they’re organized by both age and skill level. Young kids can start learning tap in combo classes, often mixed with ballet, like the Tippy classes for ages 3-4. As dancers get older or gain more experience, there are separate beginner, intermediate, and advanced tap classes for elementary, tween, and teen students. Each class is matched to where students are developmentally and technically, so whether someone's just starting out or already has some tap background, there’s a class that fits. This structure helps everyone build solid skills in a group that’s right for their age and experience.
