At The Dance Academy we LOVE TO DANCE! We want to share our passion for dance and teaching with our students. Our goal is to create a positive environment for students to have a great learning experience. We want our students to challenge themselves to be the best they can be and work to achieve goals. We encourage students to explore all different styles of dance and find what they love! Our dance year runs August-May, we take the month of December off. Once you are enrolled, we are assuming you are enrolled for the duration of the 2025-2026 dance year.
Itβs your responsibility to stay informed- Please make sure we have a current email address!!! We send out information via email, update on our Facebook and Instagram pages as well as hand out hard copies of all newsletters in class.
