Our Summer Schedule is Here!
We love summer dance so much because it allows us to continue the fabulous FUN and FITNESS throughout the summer months! Our 7-week session is a fantastic way to continue training, growing, and learning in order to reach your dance goals. For dancers moving up to the next level, Summer Dance will help give you a jump start on learning new techniques.
It's also the PERFECT time to learn something new! Whether you are wanting to try dance for the first time or if you are looking to test out a new style, we have just the right class for you!

Ages 1.5 – 3
Dance With Me
This is a great class for our 1.5-3-year-olds. We use music they know and love while learning beginner dance moves with a ballet or jazz foundation with a parent or guardian. We learn all about warming up, stretching, nursery rhymes, role-playing and obstacle courses to foster a love for dance and enhance gross motor skills.
Helpful hints for our Dance With Me class: The parent can assist with all dance moves, even carrying the dancer if she or he wants extra cuddles, or the dancer may participate more independently, dancing next to their parent. Occasionally dancers can get upset because they are overwhelmed. It happens to the best of us! If this occurs, it’s best to leave the room, calm down your dancer and return when he or she is feeling better.

Tiny Stars: Taps and Tutus
Tiny Stars is an introduction to classical ballet and tap using creative, imaginative role-playing and fun props. This class may involve pretending to be animals, playing instruments to learn rhythm, learning to balance, skipping and running and techniques using costumes and ribbons, or picking up “diamonds” (shhh…they’re actually just feathers) from the ground to develop their hand-eye coordination. This class is suitable for both boys and girls who are having so much fun that they don’t even realize that they are learning the fundamentals of ballet technique along the way.

*New* Pay What You Can Classes (PWYC)
This summer, Joy of Dance is offering a new class to provide an extra opportunity for our community to make dance more accessible. We know how hard this year has been for many of our families, so we wanted to start our Pay What You Can classes, where you set the weekly price. With a $5 weekly minimum, you can pick how much you want to spend for the summer. This class is designed with our Shooting Stars and Dance Adventures kids in mind. Each class is an hour long and includes two styles filled with dance, laughter, and compassion. If you're looking for your child to keep dancing this summer, or have a little one looking to start their dance journey, then this is a great option for your family!
