Parking Lot

Please observe the one-way pattern around the studio. At pickup time, please park in a spot if you arrive early. Please DO NOT line up before the dancers begin to exit. That area by the cones MUST remain open for the safety of dancers being dropped off. Thank you for your cooperation.

Toddler Dance

Thursday mornings come join Miss Melissa for an exciting Toddler Dance and Movement Class. Ages 18m-3y. It’s a “Mommy” or “Daddy” and Me Class. Dancers will explore movement through dance, music, obstacle courses and play while they socialize with other children and get their wiggles out. The class begins at 9am and costs $99 for the remainder of the dancer year (June). Come try it out!
