Welcome to Hudson Dance Academy!
We’re excited to have your dancer as part of the HDA family! We're looking forward to a fantastic season of dancing, learning, and fun!

First Day Musts!
To ensure your dancer is ready to kick off the season, here’s what you need for the first day of class:

Take a First Day Picture:
We’ll have our HDA backdrop set up for fun first day of dance photos. Be sure to take a picture, share it online, and tag us @hudsondanceacademy. We love seeing our dancers excited for their first class!

Get Prepared:
Water Bottle: Stay hydrated during class!
Correct Dance Attire: Make sure your dancer is in the correct dance clothes and shoes for the class.
Name in Shoes: Label all of your dancer’s shoes with their name to avoid mix-ups.
Bathroom: Ensure your dancer has used the bathroom before class to minimize distractions.
Hair Up: Keep hair neatly pulled up for class (a bun or ponytail works great!).
Smile and Dance!:
It's time to dance, have fun, and make memories!
