Our established studio program continues to offer some of the best classical training in the area with experienced instructors who teach proper technique in ballet, tap and jazz.

In this same tradition, we teach Broadway-style classic tap to our dancers. We focus even our youngest dancers on musicality, rhythm, and technique. We use tap as a secondary building block: it gives our dancers a different style of movement, allowing them to transition more easily to other styles of dance as they continue their training.

We train our dancers using the Cecchetti Method of classical ballet technique, a rigorous curriculum that develops essential dance qualities: balance , poise, and strength . We believe that ballet is the cornerstone of dance, forming a strong foundation for all other styles of dance that our older students may choose to pursue in our studios.
