Just a little word from the Director:
I believe that dancing is not just about execution and technique but also the love of the art. I want each student to feel fulfilled at the end of each class. At Bridget's Dance Studio I will strive to recognize each students talent and help them reach their full potential. If a student is not comfortable in a class they will not learn to love the art of dancing. Therefore, all students will be placed in classes that are age and skill level appropriate. If the teacher feels the student should try a different level then please understand it is for the benefit of the student. It is my goal to provide each student with a fun and challenging environment that encourages artistic growth.
All children and adult class prices are on the tuition page.

For the Tiny Dancers:
Little Groovers: Ages 3 (must turning 3 within your session)
This is a great class for the little one at home that loves to pretend. Little groovers runs in 3 month increments and does not have a recital. It is a creative movement class that also introduces children to a semi-structured dance class environment. They learn skills such as sharing, colors, rhythm, respect, hand eye coordination and more. Parents are encouraged to let the child participate on their own but we understand some children at this age may need some help at first. There is no recital involved in this class and they do not have to remember a routine.
Class Length: 45 Minutes
Tip Toes : Ages 4 (must be 4 when class begins)
This class teaches basic locomotive skills with creative movement while keeping them focused through music and class participation. This class will develop muscle, coordination, flexibility and familiarize children with early dance terminology. This class is also a great way to get children used to a fun and exciting class environment. Students that have taken one year of Tip Toes Ballet can then take Ballet and Tap. There is a recital at the studio for tip toes students and their is a costume required.
Class Length: Ballet & Tumbling 45 Minutes
Basic Dance I and II: Ages 4.5-6 (younger students should take Tip Toes first)
For kindergarten - 2 grade children. This class expands on the skills learned in Tip Toes or is also a great beginner class for those children who have not taken dance yet. They will learn to combine steps and movement with music while enhancing their dance vocabulary. Basic Tap will also be introduced at this level.A combination class that will teach basic skills of classical ballet and tap. Each style will be broken up into 1/2 hour increments. This is a perfect class to introduce a child to different styles of dance so they can increase their knowledge. Students will participate in the year end recital and only need to purchase one costume for both styles of dance.
Basic II is the next level after Basic I.
Class Length: 1 Hour

Primary Dance: (Ages 8 -10)
This class is an extension of Basic Dance. Even if the student has not danced before they will learn the essentials to continue their dance education in this class. It will include traditional center work for ballet. They will advance their tap skills with rhythmic music choices and develop a stronger more flexible body in jazz. Each style of dance will be 1/2 hour long. If a student does not want to take all three they do not have too, but it is strongly recommended.

Intermediate Lyrical/ Contemporary : Ages 11+

Intermediate Contemporary: Ages 11+
Contemporary is the daughter of modern dance and also encorporates technical elements found in ballet, jazz, hip hop, and acro. While technique is a must in all styles of dance...
