Dancers must be 18 months old and be able to run steadily on their feet by the first day of class to enroll in Dewdrop Dance.
Together, you’ll delight in enchanting adventures as you watch your toddler blossom into an independent preschooler.
The Holiday Season provides the perfect entry-level class for new students as well as on-going classes with a festive twist for continuing students.
Gobble up delicious fun in a Thanksgiving-themed class centered around gratitude and generosity.
Gingerbread Jingle classes provide ample opportunities to bask in the warmth of family and friends as you create magical holiday memories together.
Every class is an adventure!
Your toddler will thrive in Dewdrop Dance, where he or she will adore dancing with you through enchanting worlds of make-believe designed to develop early childhood skills such as sharing, making choices, taking turns, and impulse control.
Dewdrop Dance celebrates the wonder and joy of childhood by immersing children in sensory-rich pretend play activities that ignite creativity.
Teachers certified in the Leap 'N Learn method intentionally nurture the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development of toddlers.
Grown-ups will be amazed at how valuable each lesson is to their child's development. You'll love every second of class as you share many smiles and giggles with your little one.
And don't worry; we won't put you on stage; this is a non-performing class :).
Benefits Include:
- Dance Skills | Pre-ballet skills are presented in a safe, fun way that builds a foundation for future dance training.

What’s Next?
We will save a spot for your child in an appropriate class that begins in January.
Children who are not yet three years old will continue in Dewdrop, while those who turn three by January 1 will be placed in a Sparkle 3 Ballet class.
Around their 3rd birthday, Dewdrop students graduate to Sparkle 3 Ballet. Promotion months are January, March, July, and August.
In Sparkle 3 Ballet, students attend class without an adult and perform on stage in December and June.
Sparkle 3 classes have a 12-month age range, meaning three-year-olds are only placed in a class with other 3’s. The max class size is eight students with a teacher and an assistant.
Please note, however, that some short-term Sparkle classes that begin in January, March, and July may combine ages 3 and 4. The max class size is ten students with a teacher and an assistant.
