Dance with Energy focuses on quality, FUN, dance education for children & adults taught by passionate instructors who truly enjoy sharing their knowledge with their students. Whether your child is interested in dance as an extracurricular activity or they aspire to be a prima ballerina or dance on Broadway, we have something for everyone! Our studio provides quality dance education to boys, girls and adults of all ages and levels. All of our teachers have a degree in dance and/or have danced professionally. We work hard to create a positive, fun, comfortable environment for our dancers to explore their creativity and movement. Students of Dance with Energy gain strength, flexibility, body awareness, confidence, listening skills and dance class etiquette. At Dance with Energy, we realize that each child learns differently, all classes are taught in a combination of teaching styles in order to reach all learning types. All Dance with Energy classes consist of a proper warm-up, across the floor progressions, center technique, strengthening exercises and a cumulative dance routine. In every class all dancers will have the opportunity to practice individually with the teacher as well as with the group. The Dance with Energy Season runs from September through June. Each year we hold a spring recital at the end of the season!
