If you have not yet registered your dancer, we invite you to join us today! While some classes are filling quickly, we still have space available for your student to join us. We offer a wide variety of classes for dancers aged 18 months through 12th grade. From Acro to Hip Hop, Ballet to Tap, Lyrical, Jazz, and even Musical Theater, there is a class to match the passion of your aspiring dancer!
Need help narrowing down the options for your student? For age based classes, please use the dancer’s age as of October 1st, 2024. Younger 3 year olds may opt to take Creative Movement in the Peanut age group of classes if desired. A breakdown of our age level tracks is explained here: Peanut Classes: 18 months-2 year old, Tiny Classes: 3 to 4 years old, Mini Classes: 5 years to 1st Grade, Track A Classes: 2nd-3rd Grade, Track B Classes: 4th-6th Grade, Track C Classes: 6th-8th Grade, Track D Classes: 9th-12th Grade.
It is important to note that when you select your classes, you are also selecting which dance concert show your student(s) will perform in. Track A, B, C/D classes are all in the concert for their age group regardless of the day of the week classes are held. Peanut, Tiny and Mini Classes are assigned to a different show depending on the class day of the week. We will plan to hold our annual dance concerts at Gretna East High School the week of May 27th-June 2nd, 2025. This week includes dress rehearsal and picture times for each class as well. Exact dates and times for each show, dress rehearsal group are TBA.
Additional helpful information links are included below to assist you in selecting classes and preparing for your first class!
If your dancer is returning and is ready for additional performing opportunities throughout the season, you may want to check out our Crew Program! Crew is our non-competitive, performance based program. It provides dancers an opportunity to increase their number of performances throughout the year, while also building team camaraderie and advancing their technique and skills. Registration for Crew PROGRAM classes is now open along with the rest of our ND classes, so you can select your schedule altogether! It is important to note that the Crew program classes have additional requirements and fees. Parents must review the Crew paperwork below BEFORE registering for any Crew classes in order to understand the extra class requirements and fees associated with the Crew program.
New for 24.25 there will be sections of Crew labeled as Advanced. Advanced Crew is for students who have participated in Crew before and are excelling in the areas of technique, movement quality and looking for an extra challenge in choreography. Please email [email protected] with any questions. Please note that all other sections of Crew classes are available for dancers who are new or returning to crew.
The online registration process makes it easy to select your classes. To hold the dancers’ spot in classes, the registration fee ($40 per family through August 1st, $50 on or after August 2nd) and costume deposits ($35 per costume) must be paid at the time of registration. You are able to drop classes up until August 15th and receive a full refund. After August 15th, the registration fee and costume deposits will become non-refundable. Class changes or cancellations can be handled through [email protected].
The first tuition payment will be charged on September 1st, 2024. Monthly tuition payments will recur on the first business day of the month through May, 2025.
We can’t wait to kick off our 24th season with you! It’s going to be a GREAT ONE!
