We have kids dance classes for students as young as 3 years old; Classes in Ballet, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Tap, Musical Theatre, plus, combination classes for young children and Boy’s classes.
At The Dance Connection our kids dance classes are designed to be rewarding, fun and educational. These three things are what we focus on. Rewarding, because every child deserves to reach their potential and feel like they’ve accomplished something. Fun, because learning is easier when it’s fun. And educational, because the children deserve to learn proper technique by a qualified instructor.
All our kids dance classes are taught by highly qualified professionals. They are experts in their field and understand the needs of their students and the requirements of the artform. Get a more in depth look at our programs below.

Hip Hop Dance Classes
We offer Hip hop classes for children from 5 and older. Our youngest Hip-hop class is called “Little-Hop”. It’s for kindergarteners and first graders. But, we also have advanced hip-hop for older and more serious students, Some of our hip-hop teachers come in from NYC, the birthplace of Hip-hop.
Tap Dance Lessons
We have tap dance lessons for children as young as 4. If you’ve never put on a pair of tap shoes then don’t deny your child the thrill. Tap dancers develop not only dance skills but music skills also.
Jazz Dance Lessons
We have Jazz Dance Lessons for children starting in 1st grade. This is a hip and groovy style of dance that includes elements of modern dance, ballet, musical theatre and even hip-hop.
Your kids dance classes can be a source of enjoyment and confidence for many years to come. At The Dance Connection your children are our number one priority.
