Cecchetti Classical Ballet
We specialize in teaching classical ballet using the Cecchetti Method, for beginning, recreational and pre-professional students.
Acro Dance
We are excited to offer this new set of classes combining gymnastics and dance techniques.
Tap
Tap dance is best known for the sound it makes. The rhythmic tapping sound is accomplished by the dancer.
Lyrical and Contemporary Dance
Lyrical dance is a union of jazz and ballet techniques. Contemporary dance combines elements of several dance genres.
Jazz and Hip-Hop Dance
The Jazz and Hip-Hop class is a fun, up-beat blend of dance combining jazz and hip-hop technique in one class.

In our Musical Theatre classes students learn performance and dance skills, responding to the action of story and song.
