Early Childhood Program:  Ages 5-8

 

Whether this is your child’s first class, or they started in our preschool program – we have something for everyone! From getting to try their first Lyrical class or being able to choose a Level 1 class (example Tap 1 or Ballet 1) rather than a combo class if they’ve found a dance style they really love. Our instructors follow the same structured lesson plans to ensure accuracy and consistency throughout our program. This is such a fun age to watch the dancers really progress and soak in all they learn each week. It’s an exciting time! Combo classes are great for level 1 OR 2 dancers. 

 

To move to a level 2, dancers must receive instructor approval at the end of a session. These come via email.

Tiny Poms

Poms: (aka Dance Team or Drill Team in high school). From pom routines to kick-lines, this has been an exciting and fun new addition to DDA! An additional cost of $12 for pink poms (yours to keep).

​

Shoes - right now the shoe requirement is hip hop sneakers (ones that our hip hop classes wear), but we may be changing it to jazz shoes. Inquire with your instructor before you purchase
