After years of requests, we are thrilled to finally offer this high-energy class for ages 10-18. Open to all levels and welcoming both guys and girls, this class is all about exploring the fun, style, and culture of hip-hop dance.

✨ NEW Pre-Ballet Time Just Added! ✨

We're excited to announce a third Pre-Ballet option at MPAS: Tuesdays, 11:00-11:45 AM! This daytime slot is perfect for dancers ages 3-5 who aren't in school yet and would love a class earlier in the day instead of an evening option.

In Pre-Ballet, your little one will explore the basics of ballet technique in a way that captures their imagination and attention, all while building a love for creating through music, movement, and play! 🩰

All three Pre-Ballet classes are exactly the same — we simply offer multiple time slots to keep our student-to-teacher ratio just right for our youngest dancers.

Interested in registering or switching to this new time? Register here: https://app.gostudiopro.com/online/musettepas or email us at [email protected] with any questions!

We can't wait to dance with your little one! 💕
