Hey Prospective Dancers! What are YOU doing after school this year??
Maybe you're busy with sports, piano lessons, and your favorite TV shows - but even the busiest schedule should make room for dance! Why not spend one hour or two (or more!) each week making new friends and having tons of fun while learning the latest hip hop & jazz dance moves at American School of Dance - the ULTIMATE after-school dance program!
ASD is open to students in grades K - 12. Dancers of ALL levels and disciplines are welcome - no prior dance experience is necessary to attend ASD.
ASD's choreography comes straight from the fabulous dance instructors at our ADTC summer dance camps - members of some of the best national and international dance studios and performance dance groups. Our dance instructors are Broadway and MTV performers, collegiate dance team competitors and even Radio City Rockettes!
Certified ASD instructors are more than just talented dancers - they are natural leaders who hail from the best American colleges and universities and are hand-picked based on their nurturing personalities and experience with children. Unlike some more "serious" dance studios, we seek first to instill a love of dance in our students, regardless of individual ability level. We don't just focus on the dance steps - we focus on the person. We encourage each student to do her best and to be proud of herself and her accomplishments. Classes are organized by grade and instruction is carefully tailored to fit the ability of each student - from beginners to experienced performers - with lots of hands-on help and individualized attention.
In addition to ASD's core hip hop, jazz and theatre dance classes, students are exposed to a variety of additional dance disciplines (such as lyrical, ballet, and contemporary) during the after-school season. Each session culminates with a fantastic show in which every student has an opportunity to perform a minimum of two routines.
ASD operates in great locations throughout the United States. We find that our unique approach to dance instruction not only helps students to improve body awareness and build muscle tone, but also to strengthen self-confidence and develop and appreciate their expressive potential - all while learning the best in traditional jazz and hip hop dance technique AND having a great time!
