Dance at Garden Street

For Elementary Schoolers, Tweens & Teens
If they’re ready to level up — we’re ready to take them there.

This is not your average dance studio. At Garden Street, we train performers. Movers with fire. Kids who crave more than the basics — and even those who are just here to have a blast doing something real.

We offer high-impact, next-level dance classes for elementary kids, middle schoolers, and high school teens — combining elite technique, creative freedom, and the kind of mentorship that changes lives. Whether your child is dreaming of the spotlight or just showing up to move, this is the place where dancers grow, push, and own who they are.

 

We don’t water it down. We don’t waste time. And we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all training. We meet each dancer where they are — then we raise the bar.

 

Why serious (and seriously fun) dancers choose Garden Street:

• Real training. Real results.
  Our students don’t just improve — they book gigs. From Broadway and national tours to competitive dance and elite college programs, our track record speaks louder than words.

• Confidence is the core.
  Yes, we’re tough. But we’re kind. We push dancers to grow, take up space, and leave class taller than they walked in — inside and out.

• No one-dimensional dancers here.
  We train full-package performers: ballet, jazz, hip hop, musical theatre, contemporary, tap — you name it, we drill it. Versatility is power.

• For the dreamers and the dabblers.
  Whether your kid wants a stage or just a safe space to move and express — they’ll find their people here. No judgment. No pressure. Just excellent training and a lot of heart.

 

At Garden Street, we don’t just teach steps.
We shape strong, fearless performers — and even stronger humans.
Once you're here, you're not just taking class. You're part of the family.

​

What we offer and when we offer it:

​​

Intro to Dance: Tap. Ballet. Broadway. All the Moves. No Pressure.

Not sure what kind of dance your kid wants to do? You're not alone. Maybe they’ve taken a class or two. Maybe they’ve never set foot in a studio. Maybe they’re just testing the waters.

Perfect. This is the class for that.

Intro to Dance is built for curious kids (and smart parents) who don’t want to commit to one style before trying a few. In this class, they’ll get a solid taste of:

• Ballet – for grace, strength, and technique

• Tap – for rhythm, energy, and musicality

• Broadway Jazz / Musical Theater – for bold, expressive movement (no singing, just serious stage presence)

Your dancer will move, explore, and experiment—without the overload of juggling three separate weekly classes.

Why parents love it:

• No guesswork: Your child tries multiple styles in one place.

• No pressure: Stop anytime or switch classes if they find “their thing.”

• No waste: They get exposed to quality training across the board—even if they don’t stick with it all.

 

Some kids fall in love with ballet. Some live for tap. Others want that Broadway spotlight.
This class helps them find their path—and gives you the flexibility to follow it.

Ballet at Garden Street: No Tiaras. Just Technique.

We don’t do cookie-cutter ballet. We train dancers — from day one.

At Garden Street, we start real ballet training at every age. Our instructors don’t just “introduce” ballet — they drill the fundamentals that matter: alignment, coordination, musicality, core strength, clean lines, adagio control, jumps, turns, and the discipline that builds world-class technique.

Every class is intentional. Every level is earned.

Our curriculum covers:

• Classical ballet vocabulary and precision

• Barre work that builds real strength and stamina

• Center and across-the-floor technique that trains performance-level movement

• Progressive training that prepares dancers for serious advancement — not recital fluff

 

We don’t water it down. Our dancers rise to it.

 

The Levels: Know Where You Stand

Not all ballet programs are created equal. At Garden Street, our beginner level is often more advanced than other studios’ intermediates. We don’t skip steps - we build dancers the right way.

​

Ballet LEVEL I
For dancers who are new to Garden Street. Even if they’ve taken classes elsewhere, we assess and place based on our standards - because they’re higher. If your child has never trained with us or has fewer than three years of strong ballet experience, Level 1 is where they’ll start.

From there, each level increases in complexity, focus, and execution - building a foundation strong enough to go wherever dance takes them.

 

​Ballet LEVEL II

Your dancer has a foundation — now it’s time to level up.

Level II is for students who’ve had:

• At least 2 years of ballet at Garden Street, or

• 3+ years of ballet at another school with consistent training

In Level II, we raise the bar: technique gets cleaner, choreography gets more complex, and dancers begin refining artistry alongside precision. We expect students at this level to be confident in basic vocabulary, combinations, and alignment — because now we’re building real strength and control.

 

Ballet LEVEL III

This is where the training gets serious — and so do the dancers.

Level III is for dedicated ballet students, typically ages 8–teen, who have:

• Completed two full years of Ballet 8–Teen 1, or

• Trained in ballet for 4+ years at Garden Street, or

• Had 5+ years of ballet at another studio but are not yet on pointe

This class is intense, focused, and technical. Students are mastering double turns, advancing flexibility and control, and handling longer classes with more intricate choreography. Spotting technique is expected. Barre work is more detailed, and center work demands stamina, strength, and mental discipline.

Level III isn’t just about knowing steps — it’s about executing them with clarity, confidence, and commitment. We push, because they’re ready.

​​​​​Modern / Contemporary / Lyrical

Feel It. Move It. Own It.

This class isn’t just about steps — it’s about raw expression.
It’s about taking what’s inside, and learning how to say it with movement that hits hard and speaks loud.

Designed for dancers who feel deeply — and for those learning to — this fusion class blends modern dance technique with the storytelling and emotional edge of contemporary and lyrical choreography. It’s perfect for expressive kids, dramatic creatives, and even the quiet ones looking for a way to break out of their shell.

At Garden Street, we don’t choreograph “pretty” just for the sake of it. We train dancers to be bold with their choices, to take risks in the room, and to connect fully with the music, the moment, and themselves.

 

What to Expect:

• Modern dance technique to ground every dancer in strength and control

• Contemporary choreography that pushes emotional and physical limits

• Lyrical movement that tells a story — every time, every phrase

• Deep focus on musicality, core stability, balance, turns, adagio control, and expressive detail

• A safe space to move through emotion and find power in vulnerability

 

This class is about self-awareness, self-worth, and creative courage. We’re not just training dancers — we’re helping young artists understand who they are, and how to show it on stage and off.

 

Pro tip: This class pairs best with ballet and jazz for dancers ready to become triple threats with something to say.

​​​​Tap at Garden Street

Old School Grit. New School Swagger.

Tap isn’t just dance — it’s music you make with your feet. And at Garden Street, we don’t just teach it — we keep it alive with serious style.

Forget what you think you know about tap being outdated. This is where Broadway precision meets the raw, rhythmic power of hoofing. It’s equal parts showbiz flair and street-level soul. We honor the legends — from Gene Kelly to the Rockettes — but we train dancers to bring tap into their generation.

Whether your kid is Broadway-bound or just bouncing off the walls with energy, tap gives them rhythm, focus, and fire.

 

In Every Class:

• Sound clarity that cuts through the noise

• Rhythm & musicality that sharpens timing and instincts

• Performance presence that commands attention

• Footwork & phrasing that connects movement to music

• Style and swag that never goes out of fashion

 

We’re not just teaching steps — we’re passing down an art form that deserves respect, passion, and real technique.

Tap is not dead. Not here. Not on our floor.
Let’s make noise. Let’s make it count.
