Welcome to our Dance Department, where students embark on a captivating journey of self-expression, creativity, and artistic exploration through the language of movement. Our department offers a comprehensive dance education program for students from kindergarten through twelfth grade. With a commitment to fostering a love for dance and nurturing students' talents, we provide a diverse range of opportunities to inspire and engage dancers at every level.

In grades K-4, we are proud to partner with bergenPAC (Bergen Performing Arts Center) to offer dance instruction. Through this partnership, students are introduced to the fundamentals of dance, exploring various styles such as ballet, jazz, and contemporary. Our expert instructors from bergenPAC create a supportive and inclusive environment where young dancers can develop their coordination, rhythm, and artistic expression. Through age-appropriate curriculum and engaging activities, students in grades K-4 experience the joy of movement, learn foundational dance techniques, and build a solid dance foundation that prepares them for further exploration in the later years.

As students progress into the upper grades, our Dance Department offers a comprehensive curriculum that caters to dancers of all levels and aspirations. Our dedicated dance faculty, who are experienced professionals in the field, guide students through a range of dance genres and techniques, including ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop, and more. Students have the opportunity to refine their technical skills, explore choreography and improvisation, and develop their own artistic voice. Through regular classes, workshops, performances, and collaborations with local dance organizations, we provide a dynamic and enriching dance experience that nurtures creativity, self-confidence, and a lifelong appreciation for the art of dance.
