“A Commitment to Excellence”

In dance training, we believe it all begins with learning technique first, dance "tricks" later. We approach dance as a healthy, fun activity for the children in whom we specialize. What we hope to have built in each student who graduates from our PROGRAM is a strong character, a deep sense of commitment and loyalty, a high self-esteem, a self-disciplined mind and body and the firm knowledge that excellence is not being the best, but doing your best. To these ends we commit our teaching and training endeavors. DANCE SHOULD BE EDUCATIONAL AS WELL AS RECREATIONAL! Our instructors specialize in dance and CARE about you and your child! You have found your dance home at Dance Express. We know you will love our friendly atmosphere, enjoy our facility, and find that we provide the most comprehensive dance PROGRAM in the area.

Dance is for EVERYBODY. 🩵✨

Everybody Dance Now, formerly Darby’s Dancers at Dance Express, is creating inclusive opportunities for dancers with disabilities to learn, grow, perform, build friendships, and experience the joy of dance. 🩰

Now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we’re excited to expand opportunities for our dancers and families—from weekly classes and recitals to additional performances and competition opportunities. We’ll work with each family to find the path that fits their dancer best. 💫

Because everybody belongs on the dance floor. 🩷
