We have 4 air conditioned studios and offer all types of classes for both recreational as well as competitive students (aged 2-18). Most classes are 45 minutes or one hour in length, but there are some half hour classes for the younger ones. We teach from Monday to Sunday from September to June. There is a year-end show in June that all of the children participate in.
We believe that children are our greatest resource, they are the future. Children need love, encouragement and support to grow to their greatest potential. At Dancin'Stars we foster personal growth not only in dance, music and the arts but in all areas of life. Through our genuine passion for the arts, we lead a positive example inspiring young artists to achieve their dreams.
Talented and professional mentors guide you through courses in acting for film, TV and stage, as well as voice, piano and guitar. Private coaching is available, as well, for audition and business preparations and life strategies.
