This Is Where dancers are made.
Performing Company is more than extra classes. It is the experience that changes how your dancer carries themselves — on stage, in school, and in life. Five tracks. One community. A season your family will talk about for years.
Why Company Changes Everything
Three things happen to Company dancers.
Every one of them is real, measurable, and worth every hour of rehearsal.
Transformation
A recreational dancer learns choreography. A Company dancer learns how to perform — presence, precision, resilience under pressure. The stage reveals something in a child that a classroom never can. Parents consistently describe it as a turning point.
Belonging
Company creates a team. Not metaphorically — a real group of kids who count on each other, celebrate each other, and show up for each other week after week. The friendships made in Company are the ones that last. Ask any family who has been through it.
Credential
Multi-show performance experience, convention training, and competitive exposure builds a dance résumé that matters — for high school programs, college auditions, and life skills that transfer far beyond dance. Company dancers stand out. Consistently.
Our Dance Positive longitudinal mood study — conducted in partnership with researchers at the University of Pennsylvania — has recorded over 53,000 mood measurements from children in dance classes. The data on what consistent dance training does to a child's wellbeing is striking. Read the research →
Five Paths. One Company.
Find the track that fits your dancer.
Every track is part of the same Performing Company family — the same community, the same standards, the same pride on show night.
Our youngest performers take their dancing to the next level. Petite Dancers experience the full pride of Company — rehearsal, performance, and belonging — in an environment built exactly for them.
Designed for dancers entering 2nd or 3rd grade — whether it is their first year in Performing Company or a step up from Petite. Starburst is where young dancers find their stage voice and start building real performance instincts.
Pre-Company dancers participate in the Performing Company Gala, the Banquet, and the June Recital. This is the bridge between recreational dance and the full competitive experience — serious training, real performance stakes.
Hip-Hop Crew is a standalone specialty track — or a powerful add-on to any other Company level. Dancers can join Crew exclusively, or combine it with additional groups for a richer season. High energy, high skill, unmistakable presence.
The full-company experience. Open to any dancer in 2nd grade and above who wants multiple performance opportunities — conventions, competitions, galas, and recitals. This is the track where dancers discover what they are truly capable of. The training is demanding. The growth is undeniable. The memories are permanent.
