​
Held annually at the beautiful Poway Center for the Performing Arts (PCPA), our recitals provide each student a chance to showcase their accomplishments on a professional stage, complete with costumes, sets, props and lighting in front of a live, appreciative audience of family and friends!
​
Our philosophy of "Every Dancer is a Star!" is experienced by all during our annual showcase of dances at the PCPA - where students share their talents and feel the sense of accomplishment that comes from a stage experience.
​
Weekly classes are designed to prepare students for success on stage, without "drilling" or overteaching performance pieces. Dance technique and a happy, stress-free approach to learning ensures that every student is well prepared and excited for any performance!
​
Being applauded for a job well done is an amazing, life-affirming experience for our dancers and their families, creating memories of joyful success that last a lifetime.
