Hi everyone! The show is fast approaching. Please make every effort to get your child to dance classes for the rest of the season. It's very difficult for the choreographer to space dances when people are missing. Thanks and it's going to be a great show!

All classes (yoga and dance) have been canceled this evening due to the weather. Stay safe!
Good Morning 🌞 We had planned on having classes but now realize that many of our dancers travel from outside of Scranton. We have decided to cancel classes today (hopefully for our last storm). Bundle up and think Spring!
