We have many options for dancers throughout the summer months to continue their dance training. There are several class styles for ages 3 - adult. We often have workshops and intensives as well to keep your dancer busy and training in the "off" season.

​

We highly recommend continuing your child's dance training in the summer, so they can continue working on their technique and make progress for the season to come.
