This is not offered during summer session because it is only 4 weeks long. It is also not applicable to our Summer camps. How do we approach clarification without getting into during the blurb above. The free week is really only applicable during the Fall Spring session.
Yes! It is true! You can take a week’s worth of classes at The Dance Academy free if you are a new or returning dancer, Try any style of dance at your level over the course of a 7 day period. How do you start taking trial classes? Take a look at our online schedule. Check for the day, time, and class name you would like to take. What level should you choose?
We offer a guide based on age, but after level 2, it is really experience and skill level that can be evaluated by teachers. Take the level that best fits your age or ask at the desk for guidance on the level that would be the best fit based on your level of experience. If you need additional assistance, call before coming in for a trial class to get direction on the best fit for your level of experience. Call (253)848-8876. Offering a week of classes enables you to try more than one level if needed and to try classes in styles you might not have had experience in.

Other Important Information

Dance Class Levels

Anything after the level 2 is determined by ability not age. Age of child guidelines are offered as a guide, but we can help you find the right level if needed based on age and experience.

Level Pre is 3 and 4 year olds – look for pre ballet/tap, pre hip hop and mini tumbling on the schedule.

Level 1 is 5 and 6 year olds

Level 2 is 7 and 8 year olds

All other levels need to be determined by ability.

Teen is for students in their teen years re-entering dance from another sport.

The first step to registering is to create a parent portal on our site including all required information. We may need to help you get into a class, so start by creating the portal.

Our office manager will need to add you to classes because we are keeping classes small due to government guidelines.

Let me know if you need help. Notify me when your parent portal is ready and what classes you are requesting. I will make sure you get the classes of your choice.

Dress Code for classes is as follows:

Comfortable attire including black tights, leggings, or joggers will work for ballet. Wear comfortable attire and clean tennis shoes for hip hop.
