Dance is one of the best learning experiences that parents provide for their children. Since 1970, thousands of Manhattan-area families have been part of our dance family. We - Sharron Washington and Jennie Washington Stout - are professional dance instructors and co-owners. We carefully balance high standards with warmth, humor and common sense. We have the expertise and education to take your dancer as far as he or she wants to go.
We offer a complete range of dance classes so all students can discover the style of dance that best suits them! Some of our dancers develop such a strong love of the art that they make it their career. For others, dance is one of their favorite recreational pursuits. Our greatest accomplishment is that so many families have made our tradition of excellence in dance education part of their traditions as well.
