This studio is a no-glitz, non-competitive nurturing environment. Young dancers don't spend the whole year learning their "recital dance". They learn the various techniques of dance with different combinations each week. Attention to recital choreography is later in the year. The performance company does not compete, but presents several shows a year which include the dancers' own choreography. It's about the process, creativity, imagination, growth & building confidence. Our adult classes are ongoing and drop-in. (Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Contemporary, African, Latin, Zumba...)
Our knowledgable and experienced teachers hold a loving and welcoming space for all.

Makeup suggestions for performers:
Young dancers, 5-7 age range, some blush on cheeks, eyeliner if desired and mascara.
For lips: NO bright red! Instead, blush, rose, burgundy, or mauve shades are best. We want lips to look naturally rosy. See sample photo. This photo was taken at CVS. We like the fourth one from the left best. But any of these are good.
Once dancers are a little older, a foundation is best to keep blush and powders secure. Then line the eyes and add mascara. Same note for lips. Blue eye shadow is also discouraged.
Tans or plums are better.
