This snippet of improv is part of one of our dancer’s audition for the Lines Summer Intensive Junior Program. We’re so pleased that she was accepted and plans to attend. Please join us in congratulating her!

So grateful to Katie and Borne Dance Company for using their platform to bring awareness to mental health and eating disorders in their annual spring show. We were honored to be able to take part in the performance.
Dance can make a difference.

Come study ballet at Galaxy. It’s never too late to start.

So excited to start some partnering for our dancers!

Galaxy is excited to welcome Joan Pasion to the studio. Joan will be teaching an amazing Hip Hop class designed to explore the genre and make stronger overall dancers. We’d like this to be for more experienced dancers. She’ll also be teaching our Beginning Teens Ballet class. Never too old to start ballet! Contact us to arrange a free trial of these classes.
