Academy Program

Our Academy Program (ages 7 and up) is designed to help dancers grow through quality instruction, strong technical training, and intentional progression. Rather than placing dancers by age alone, our faculty carefully places each student in the level where they will have the best opportunity to learn, build confidence, and succeed. Dancers ages 3-6 can explore our Sprout Program offerings and class times. 

Our 2026-2027 dance season will run from August 17, 2026 to May 29, 2027

  • Learning choreography challenges the brain, helping dancers strengthen memory, concentration, and problem-solving skills.
