The Dance Factory - Where dancing memories are made!

Featuring Young Dancers Programs

By Sponsored November 24, 2015

The Dance Factory was founded to provide youth and adults a safe environment to learn and grow in the area of dance education. We have incorporated standards and best practices to insure that each individual receives the best possible education.

Our instructors are well-educated in the areas of human anatomy and physiology to minimize dance-related injuries and fatigue. In addition, dancers learn about healthy life-styles which includes the importance of proper nutrition and maintaining strength, endurance and flexibility.

The Dance Factory has developed levels appropriate for an individual’s age, maturity and dance experience. The system is designed to advance students in a progressive manner. Our youngest students begin in a creative program that builds on their curiosity, develops their musicality, refines social skills, and teaches dance terms and simple sequence phrases.

Young Dancers Programs
Each has its own curriculum designed to meet the developmental and cognitive growth of the ages served by the program. Both encourage creativity, self-discipline, poise, socialization, and artistic enrichment.

These two programs allow students to develop physically, cognitively, socially, emotionally, musically and creatively and are considered prerequisites for the Youth Dance Program.

- The Creative Dance Program
is offered in six-week sessions that are themed and designed for students ranging in age from 3 to 5 years.

Dates: 

  • January 4th - February 29th
  • March 1st - April 23rd
  • April 24th - June 11th

    The Foundation of Dance Program is for students from age 6 (First Grade) through 8.5 years. This program allows the student to explore dance which is age appropriate and provides for development and awareness. It is offered in three 12-week sessions.  Students attending the Foundation of Dance Program will learn dance history as they develop their musicality and creativity, and explore movements that develop technique and body placement. Each session will incorporate a Creative Dance Lab where students can implement dance concepts and create their own choreography.

Dates:

  • December 8th to March 12th
  • March 15th to June 11th
