Arts Umbrella's dance programs are internationally recognized as training that develops the whole dancer, stressing technical strength while embracing the importance of the intellectual and artistic elements of the art form. Starting at age six, the programs meet a variety of needs for students: those wanting to explore dance for fun, those committed students seeking intensive dance training, and those in between. With a strong foundation in Classical Ballet, Contemporary, Jazz and Modern, young dancers are given an opportunity to explore the art form as artists, athletes, performers, audience members and future professionals.
