"When I'm Dancing on Stage All is Right in the World "
At Live Gracefully Dance Studio we take pride in raising dancers! It is important to us that your child receives a proper dance education and has a lot of fun while doing it ! In our classes we offer a structured yet fun environment that they will learn not only skills in the classroom but also in life for their future!
We offer a variety of style: Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Lyrical, Contemporary ,Pointe & Acro/Gymnastics.
Dancers have started in our creative movement beginner classes, moved onto level 1 classes and then onto level 2. Our classes are determined mainly on how old the student is so that dancers can be with kids their own age. If they are new to dance and starting out, we recommend the level 2 classes and we make a point of catching them up to that level. This way they can enjoy their experience.
Recreational classes start the day after labor day and end late May with our annual Recital. Registration is open from July-October 31st. We start in September learning class structure and the fundamentals of the style. As our season continues we focus on a choreographed routine that we practice with the class until our big show. We offer a Christmas performance to all dancers that we hold in a local auditorium for families to enjoy before break.
