Stylized Technique Classes (ages 10-16, 12-18)

In our Be a Light program, we believe in nurturing the joy of dance from the very first step. Our program is thoughtfully designed to guide dancers, ages 6 & up, through a creative journey of movement, music, and connection. With class levels named Spark, Ignite, Shine, Illuminate, Radiance, and Glow, dancers grow in both confidence and technique as they progress.

Each class is rooted in age-appropriate dance training, emphasizing foundational technique, musicality, and social interaction. Complementary dance styles are scheduled back-to-back, encouraging dancers to explore a variety of genres in one seamless experience.

To celebrate their growth and hard work, all dancers within each level will perform together in the same show during our June recital—creating a memorable and inspiring experience for dancers and families alike.

It’s time to shine—one class, one step, one smile at a time.
