At PlanetDance, we know our students and their families have different needs when it comes to dance education. That's why our knowledgeable and experienced staff and choreographers work hard to ensure that our classes are tailored for all levels of students, from recreational to competitive. We offer a diverse range of classes, allowing our students to select the program that best suits their needs. Whether they just want one class a week or opt for a more intensive program with unlimited courses, our students can learn from skilled professional dancers and choreographers from across the nation.
At PlanetDance, we are passionate about providing quality dance instruction to our students. Our teachers and choreographers invest immense time and effort to ensure that our classes are tailored to the individual needs of each student and their families. We offer a wide selection of classes including recreational and competitive levels, allowing students to choose their course load based on their availability and interests. With our experienced educators and choreographers from all over the country, our students have the opportunity to learn from some of the best in the industry.
Classes are available for ages 3 and up in ballet, tap, jazz, and hip hop. Each month the studio hosts a watch week where parents are invited to watch what the dancers have been working on during the last 10 minutes of class. Recreational dancers perform at the annual recital in June. Recital costume costs are kept reasonable as we understand they are often only worn a few times for pictures, rehearsal, and at the recital.

Competitive Program
Participation is by audition only. Company members compete at 3-4 regional competitions and attend a national dance competition every other year. Company members participate in a minimum of 1 dance convention each year to experience working with other choreographers. Participation on a competition team requires a significant time commitment.
