Enroll early! Early Bird Pricing is good through March 20th (and are applied at checkout). Regular pricing will be in place starting March 21st.
Weekly Intensives provide an opportunity to grow in technique and artistry. We’re thrilled to welcome back professionals from Koresh Dance Company in Philadelphia along with other Master Teachers. These intensives allow dancers to try genres they may not take during the school year. We’re really excited to offer Ballet, Modern, Contemporary, Jazz, African, and Improvisation this year!
Evening classes are a ton a fun as well and also provide the opportunity for a dancer to try something new.
