At the Academy, dancers learn the importance of discipline, dedication, and the value of hard work.
At the Tate Academy, students can benefit from a wide variety of dance and performance programs. Our Summer Intensive program offers an opportunity for dancers to hone their skills and gain new knowledge in a variety of dance disciplines. The program also includes classes in acting, improvisation, and nutrition. We strive to make sure that our tuition is affordable for all families, and our holidays and closings are set in advance to allow for proper planning.
Ballet is the foundation of dance technique and is carried over to most other dance styles. At The Tate Academy, we hold the highest regard for the training of our ballet dancers. Dancers will not only learn ballet’s formal/strict technique but also its own French vocabulary.

Jazz
Jazz dance has evolved over the past few years due to it’s popularity on TV, movies, music videos, and commercials. Today’s jazz may include Broadway, Jazz Funk and even contemporary movements. Dancers complete warm-up and stretching exercises before going across the floor to work on such skills as leaps, turns, kicks and jumps before learning a combination to end the class.
