La Danse Academie is proud to offer a varied curriculum of dance classes aimed at creating versatile and well-rounded dancers. A dance education provides students with strong life skills such as self-esteem, teamwork, responsibility, time management skills, and dedication to excel in both onstage and off. Our dancers are taught to have respect for themselves, respect for those around them, and a strong appreciation for the art of dance. Dancers are leveled into classes by age, and all classes are developed to be age appropriate regarding music, costumes, and content. La Danse Academie offers classes for dancers of all ages from 18 months and through adult in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Pointe, Contemporary and Musical Theatre! Our school year begins in September and culminates in June with a fully produced recital on stage in which all dancers showcase their talents! The first half of the year is dedicated to skill acquisition and improving technique. Since dance is a performing art, the recital is an important part of the training process as students learn about theatre, rehearsal, perfecting a dance, and showcasing their skills during the second half of the year. This is a wonderful way for dancers to display the results of their hard work, and for family and friends to join in their pride of achievement.
