We had a sweet group of dancers this year in our Pre-Company class — shoutout to Miss @laurenn_ashh for all the love and knowledge poured into these girls!

Pre-Company is a Jazz Technique & Combo Class open to dancers Ages 5-7. This class is designed for dancers wanting more technique beyond regular class and/or for dancers wanting to eventually audition for Company. These dancers are invited to participate in our Annual Company Photoshoot and are also invited to attend dance conventions with us if they choose.
The Pre-Company class for the 2024-2025 Dance Year will be on Mondays 5:00-6:00 with Miss @sydneypagee! Registration is available on your Parent Portal! We hope to see your little one next dance year!
