REGISTRATION IS OPEN for our Fall 2026 CSD Sprouts classes! 🌱

This joyful program is designed for dancers 18 months to 3 years and includes movement, music, fun, and a parent observation “finale” on the last day of class where dancers will play dress-up in a sparkly costume and show off what they’ve learned!

Session 1: August 29 - September 19
Session 2: October 17 - November 7

Class options (for each session):
Group 1 - Saturdays | 9:15–9:45 AM
Group 2 - Saturdays | 10:00–10:30 AM
Group 3 - Saturdays | 10:45-11:15 AM

Program Notes:

* Dancers can enroll in one session or both!
* Dancers must be 18 months before their first class.
* Ballet shoes are required (ballet pink, available through the studio.)

Never miss a chance to dance!

Wrapped up a fabulous week of Pop Star Summer Camp at CSD with this crew! Thank you to Coach Kasey, Ms. Alexa, and all of our studio assistants who made this week a blast! 💜

We're so excited to announce that Center Stage Dance is officially an Acrobatic Arts Certified Studio! 💜🤸

Congratulations to Ms. Kirstin and Ms. Natalie, who recently completed their Acrobatic Arts certification training! Their hard work and dedication mean our dancers will benefit from an internationally recognized, progressive Acro curriculum designed specifically for dancers. The program emphasizes safe skill development, proper technique, strength, flexibility, balance, and confidence through carefully structured progressions.

This season, our dancers in Mini Acro (NEW!), Acro I, and Acro II will experience this exciting curriculum as they build strong foundations, master new Acro Dance skills, and grow in a fun, encouraging environment.

At Center Stage Dance, we're always looking for ways to invest in our students and provide the very best training possible. We can't wait to watch our Acro dancers soar this season!

Open Enrollment for Center Stage Dance’s 15th Performance Season begins TOMORROW with our annual in-person registration event!

Whether your dancer is stepping into the studio for the very first time or you’re looking for a dance home where your child will be encouraged, challenged, and celebrated, we’d love to meet you.

Monday, June 29 from 3:00–8:00 PM at Center Stage Dance

Stop by to tour the studio, meet our staff, ask questions, and find the perfect classes for your dancer.

Our Performance Season classes are available for dancers ages 3 through adult, and many of our most popular class times fill quickly on a first come, first served basis.

This is going to be one of the most exciting seasons in CSD history as we celebrate our 15th season and prepare for our very first production of The Nutcracker this December!

Can’t make it tomorrow? Online enrollment opens Tuesday, June 30, but if you have your heart set on a particular class, we recommend joining us in person!

We can’t wait to welcome so many new faces to the CSD family!

Never miss a chance to dance! 💜

A Purple Blanket has officially made it to Maine! 💜

When CSD dancers dance for five consecutive seasons, they’re awarded a Purple Blanket to celebrate their dedication and commitment. It’s one of our favorite traditions!

Allie’s mom shared this awesome photo of her watching the sunrise in Acadia National Park wrapped up in her Purple Blanket, and we couldn’t resist sharing it. We love spotting Purple Blankets out in the wild and seeing the adventures they get to be a part of!

Way to represent CSD, Allie! 💜

A fun week with this crew for our Surf Crazy Summer Camp! Thank you to Ms. Ashley for planning such a great week for our dancers! What a blast! 🌊🏄🏻‍♀️☀️

For 15 years, Center Stage Dance has been helping dancers discover confidence, creativity, friendship, and a lifelong love of dance. As we prepare to begin our 15th season, we can't wait to welcome new dancers into the CSD family at our Open Enrollment event on June 29th!

We're proud of our community where dancers grow in confidence, build friendships, develop strong technique, and experience the joy of performing together.

Performance classes are available for dancers ages 3-18, college students, and adults!

Roaring into Season 15! 🦁

While the studio may be a little quieter during summer break, we’re already hard at work preparing for an incredible 2026-2027 performance season at Center Stage Dance. Class assignments for returning students have been sent, schedules are coming together, and we can’t wait to welcome our dancers back this fall!

Open Enrollment is just around the corner, and we can’t wait to meet the new dancers joining the CSD family! 💜

And just like that… CSD’s Wildest Dreams is in the books! 🌙

What an incredible weekend of dancing, dreaming, and celebrating all that our dancers have accomplished this season.

To our dancers: thank you for your hard work, courage, dedication, and the joy you brought to the stage. We are so proud of every leap, turn, smile, and moment of growth that led you here.

To our faculty, staff, volunteers, and crew: thank you for the countless hours spent behind the scenes making the magic happen. Your passion and commitment make Center Stage Dance what it is.

And to our families and audience members: thank you for cheering, encouraging, supporting, and believing in our dancers every step of the way. We couldn’t do this without you!

Our hearts are full, our feet are tired, our memories will last a lifetime!

As one dream comes to an end, another is already beginning. We can’t wait to be back on the stage at Heindl Center for the Performing Arts this December as we begin a new holiday tradition with The Nutcracker: A Winter Dream.

Until then, thank you, dancers, for making Wildest Dreams a season we’ll never forget! Never miss a chance to dance! ✨💜

P.S. thank you to Lauren’s Lens for these beautiful photos! We love reliving all of the joy from the weekend!
