The Dance Studio
The dance studio has proudly put dancers on the path to excellence since 1969. Our classes and special programs nurture, inspire and motivate dancers to find their own unique artistry and self-expression through movement. There is a Spring Performance each year that all students are given a chance to dance in. Get in touch to learn more.
