ArtWorks Academy’s eight to twelve-week arts experiences are perfect for the budding artist who is excited to take a dance class, but might not be able to commit to our lengthier school year classes. The flexibility of these shorter sessions allows you to choose the session(s) that work for your family’s schedule.
Our Saturday classes have four 8-week sessions. On Saturdays we offer Parent and Tot, Tap, Twirl, and Tumble, Ballet/Tap Combo, Little Cirque, and Dance Cirque!
On Sunday we offer two 12-week sessions of Creative Movement.

Parents or caregivers actively participate in our Parent and Tot classes with their child. Students learn basic dance steps and terminology through songs, stories, and imaginative play. Parent and Tot classes focus on ballet and beginning acro. Students will work on acro skills such as log rolls, forward rolls, wheelbarrows, etc. They will develop core strength and gross motor skills necessary for more difficult skills as they get older. Parent and Tot classes are a great stepping stone to our 2-3 year old classes, where they will participate without a parent.
Parent and Tot classes provide a wonderful way for you to bond with your child. They can also be a great opportunity for parents and students to make new friends or you can invite your friends or playgroup to enroll in the same class with you!

Our preschool dance classes include preballet, tap and beginning acro skills! Our youngest dancers will develop rhythm and musicality through tap. They will learn the basics of ballet while developing their gross motor skills, balance, and grace. Finally, they will work through the primary level of the Acrobatic Arts syllabus to gain strength and flexibility that will help them in all future dance endeavors – ballet, tap, jazz, and advanced acro! Start your young dancer off right with a balance of strength, musicality, and poise in our TTT classes!
