Kids’ Dance

For kids, dance classes can have several benefits. Dance can improve a child’s health through fun physical activity, and it can foster a sense of mental well-being with discipline, creativity, and self-expression. There are many social benefits, as kids can participate in our group lessons and meet peers with similar interests. Dance can be a lifelong passion that children will take with them into adulthood. For kids aged three to 11, we’re happy to offer special classes that cover a range of dance styles.

We look forward to seeing you soon and sharing our love of dance!

Discipline and  Fun Go Hand in Hand

With discipline and tenacious dedication, the sky is truly the limit. This certainly holds true for dancers. At the Institute of Dance, we believe that childhood is a good time to instill the habit of hard work and dedication. Since 1982, generations of dancers have proven it is possible to have fun while exercising the highest level of discipline. Get in touch with us today via an email!
