Adult & Teen
Dance Classes
At NorthEast Dance Center we believe dance is for everyone! Throughout the year we offer short-term and full-season (September-May) dance classes for teens and adults. We know life can be busy so all our teen and adult classes are available as "drop-in," where each class is paid for upon arrival with cash, credit card, or a drop-in punch card (discounted class rates). Feel free to register normally as well, but know that individual classes will be non-refundable. We offer optional performance opportunities as well, so come take class to learn a new skill, stay in shape, get back into dancing, or to get back on the stage!
Dress Code
There is no formal dress code for our teen & adult dancers. Wear clothes that you can comfortably move in! Full-sole tap shoes (such as these) are needed for tap classes, but for barre and our beginning ballet classes you may choose to wear ballet shoes or socks. For Intermediate-Advanced Ballet, split-sole ballet shoes (such as these) are suggested.
We do have some new and gently-used dance shoes at the studio. Send us a note to inquire about availablity or visit our Dress Code Page for more information.
