YOUTH PROGRAM
Our Youth Program is designed for dancers looking to train in hip-hop and street style genres. As a niche studio dedicated to these genres, we provide specialized training that builds strong foundations, knowledge, confidence and performance skill set to our dancers. This program is open to dancers ages 3 to 18 and all levels.
RECREATIONAL TRAINING PROGRAM
Our Recreational Training Program offers weekly classes that are structured based on age ranges and different class levels to ensure every dancer is placed where they can grow and thrive. All dancers interested in joining the recreational training program must complete an assessment day/trial class, allowing our instructors to determine the level best suited for the dancer’s skill set and training goal. The recreational program offers class options that may include performance opportunities include a holiday showcase and/or year end recital.
COMPETITIVE PROGRAM
Our Competitive Program offers Youth dancers the opportunity to seek a higher level of training and performance experiences. This program is available by audition only and is offered to select dancers who demonstrate strong work ethic, skill and readiness for team training and competition events. Dancers must attend either an assessment class/trial in August or September of the upcoming program new year.
PROGRAM CALENDAR STRUCTURE
Both our Recreational Training Program & Youth Competitive Programs are commitment-based and follow the school calendar year, running from September to early June. This structure allows dancers to build consistency, develop progressively, and training with intention through the season.
