About Center Stage School of Performing Arts in Garner, NC

We have been teaching in Fuquay-Varina for over 40 years and we are looking forward to many more wonderful years ahead with a lot of great dancers and special memories! We strive to keep our classes small and intimate; this way, we can give each dancer individual attention. This has always been our approach, even before the Covid-19 pandemic. Our classes are taught by professional teachers with more than 100 years of experience. We don't just teach one dance routine; we teach the techniques of dance and how to dance. We believe in allowing each student to progress and grow at their own pace. We are passionate about helping our students reach their personal dance dreams and become the best they can be in all aspects of their lives.

Ballet

We recommend all dancers take ballet! Want to be an amazing dancer? Take ballet! We teach a graded Cecchetti Method in early years and then, we expand to other styles of classical ballet as the student progresses. We focus our classes on French terminology, body and mind awareness, nutrition, and pure classical ballet technique. This class incorporates barre work, jumps, turns, leaps, technique, across the floor combinations, and center work. This class also establishes discipline, posture, and so much more.

Tap

This is what we are really good at! Our studio has the best tap program around and we have won numerous awards in this genre. Tap can be considered not only an entertaining and joyful style of dance but also a percussive instrument, like the drums! It helps students develop an understanding of rhythm, music theory, and the mechanics that the body requires to “play” their instrument. It is a great class that encourages confidence in a welcoming and judgement-free environment. Focusing on muscle strengthening, memory quickness, coordination, control, improvisation, rhythmic timing and performance skills. In tap class, dancers will create different rhythmic sounds with their feet ranging from shuffles, flaps and pullbacks, to wings and other fancy tricks.
