2021-2022 Classes
Welcome to the 2021-2022 school year! We are excited to continue to build quality dancers through our classes this year. Continuing students should find their class(es) below and click the button to register online.
Each class has a specific color leotard that needs to be worn by the ladies during classes. Male dancers will need a solid color shirt, black tights and black shoes to wear for class.
All dancewear, including shoes and tights, can be purchased at the Dancewear counter in the lobby of the studio. Ladies also have the opportunity to purchase their class leotard online when they register for classes and can be picked up at the Dancewear counter.
