Our comprehensive curriculum nurtures talent and passion through foundational styles like Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Modern dance.

Dancestation operates on a semester system, with fall registration typically opening in August. Our structured learning environment spans two main periods: September to January and February to June, ensuring consistent skill development. We are committed to making dance accessible, offering family discounts and managing costume fees in installments, sometimes utilizing rentals. Special events, including guest teacher workshops, exams (such as the Cecchetti method), and advanced student opportunities, are also featured. Our Summer Intensive 2025, an invitation-only program from August 4th to 8th, offers an immersive experience in Ballet, Jazz, Modern, Improv, Pointe, and Choreography, delivering over a month's worth of technique in a week and culminating in a parent performance. This intensive features distinguished guest instructors: Miranda Payne (Jazz/Choreography), Monica Woods (Modern), Claire Rineberg (Ballet), and Ben Mielke (Improv), all bringing extensive professional experience. Dancestation director Elizabeth Conway, with a BFA in Dance Performance, leads Pointe and Choreography. We pride ourselves on performance opportunities, including Watch Week, parade participation, the 'Nutcracker,' and annual recitals, with mandatory rehearsals and performances for 'Recital Week.'
