Our Mission at The Dancing House

Helping students of all ages and abilities develop into kind confident and life ready humans through the art of dance.

Tuesday

4:45-5:30pm Ballet II 8+yr. $75/Month - Ballet II is where dancers begin building upon their strong foundational technique while growing in strength, coordination, artistry, and confidence.

Students in this level have established an understanding of core ballet vocabulary and positions and will continue progressing into more advanced concepts including fourth and fifth position, longer movement sequences, jumps, leaps, turns, across-the-floor progressions, and increased musicality and performance quality.

As dancers grow into their changing bodies, we focus heavily on proper alignment, posture, strength, flexibility, and clean technical execution in a supportive and encouraging environment. At The Dancing House, we believe strong ballet foundations create strong, healthy dancers for life.

All dancers in our Graded Technique Program participate in annual skills testing as they continue progressing through the ballet curriculum.

5:30-6:15pm Lyrical/Jazz II 8yr+ $75/Month - This is a beginner level class. Lyrical dance combines techniques of classical ballet and modern dance with current forms of popular dance along to lyrical music. This class will include a warm up, stretching, across the floor, center work, and choreography that will be made into a dance. This is a great class for dancers who want to express deeper emotion through movement and prefer a softer form of dance.   *Costume Fee $95 due Oct. 5th.  Students will wear costume in both recitals. *All of your dance attire needs are available through PRIMA.

Wednesday

4:45:-5:30 pm 4-5yr Tap & Tutus$124/6 Week Session Our Tap & Tutus class for ages 4–5 is the perfect blend of movement, imagination, learning, and FUN!

In this class, dancers continue building their tap foundations while growing in coordination, rhythm, listening skills, and confidence. We begin introducing more arm coordination, stage directions, musicality, and classroom structure in a way that feels encouraging and developmentally appropriate for this age group.

In the second half of class, dancers are introduced to the beautiful foundations of ballet through basic positions, beginner progressions, creative movement, and storytelling. We focus on helping dancers understand how their body moves while building balance, strength, posture, and grace—all while keeping the joy of dance at the center of the experience.

This age is such a sweet spot for learning. They are curious, expressive, and eager to grow, and we love meeting them right where they are.

At The Dancing House, our smaller class sizes allow dancers to receive personalized attention in a nurturing environment where they can build confidence, friendships, and a true love for dance.

5:40-6:25 - 5-6yr Hip Hop  $124/6 Week Session - In this fun and energetic 6-week session, dancers ages 5–6 will explore the foundations of Hip Hop and Jazz while building confidence, coordination, rhythm, and musicality in a supportive and encouraging environment.

Dancers will work on isolations, grooves, basic jazz technique, across-the-floor movement, teamwork, and beginner choreography while dancing to upbeat, age-appropriate music they’ll love. As they grow, students begin learning how to retain choreography, move with intention, express themselves through movement, and work together as a group.

This class is designed to keep dancers moving, engaged, and having fun while developing important foundational dance skills and classroom confidence.

Dress Code:
• CLEAN tennis shoes
• Comfortable clothing dancers can move easily in

Thursday

5:45-6:30pm 5-6yr. Tap/Tutus $124/6 Week Session - 

Our Tap & Tutus class for ages 5–6 continues building on the strong foundation dancers have already begun while encouraging greater independence, coordination, confidence, and musicality.

In tap, dancers will continue progressing through foundational steps and rhythms while adding more complex coordination, timing, arm patterns, stage directions, and movement quality. As their confidence grows, so does their ability to retain combinations, move with intention, and perform with personality.

In ballet, dancers begin deepening their understanding of posture, alignment, classroom structure, basic terminology, and foundational technique through center work, across-the-floor progressions, and creative movement. We focus on building strength, balance, flexibility, and body awareness in a way that is both educational and joyful.

This age group is such a fun season of growth because dancers are beginning to connect the “why” behind what they are learning while still holding onto the magic and imagination of dance.

*All of your dance attire needs are available through PRIMA.
