About Us!
Dance Action is entering our 14th dance season and we are so excited for all the new experiences, classes, and opportunities we are able to offer you and your children. We have 2700 square feet of space divided into 3 large and spacious studios, a lobby (with closed circuit TV to watch your child’s classes), a large locker room/hangout/homework area, 2 bathrooms, and ample parking for everyone.
At Dance Action it doesn’t matter if your child takes 1 class or 8 classes, each child is unique and special and can dance in whatever class or style of dance they want because we do not require you to take certain classes in order to take other classes. Your child can take whatever class they want.
The Dance Action staff is comprised of professional and dance-educated instructors. Our instructors are all dedicated to your child’s growth as a dancer at a level of learning that is both fun and technical. We do not use inappropriate songs during any class or recital and all of our costumes are appropriate with no cutouts or bellies showing. Recitals are ONE DAY ONLY and Videotaping is allowed at the Recital!! Our class pricing is comparable to area studios with the exception that we only charge for 9 months yet we offer classes for 10 months!!!
Additionally, we offer all children the opportunity to dance in the community when able and starting at age 5, to be a part of our competition team. We DO NOT HOLD TRYOUTS for our team. Any child who wants to be a part of the competition team can. The only requirement is that they are in a Ballet Class. Students in competition at level 2 and above must also be in one other class in addition to Ballet.
