The SDA provides a fun and engaging dance program for kids. This program is designed for boys and girls, aged 3 and older.
SDA classes are a great introduction into the genres of ballet, tap and jazz dance and utilize the exclusive Stafford Dance Academy dance class curriculum. Classes combine terminology, rhythm and age appropriate skills with props and fun and engaging themes. SDA dance class curriculum uses kid friendly music and is gender neutral to ensure that all dancers have fun!
The 2022/2023 - School Year season classes are offered once a week - on TUESDAYS - starting the week of August 8th, 2022 and ending the week of May 16th, 2023.
