Dance Gallery Melrose

Dance Gallery Melrose Now in our 51st season, the Dance Gallery offers programs for ages 2 to Adult, Beginner to Professional. Contact us by email, phone or text.

The Dance Gallery was established in 1974 making us one of the oldest dance schools in the area. Under the artistic direction of Susan Tocco Catricala, the school offers a variety of dance programs that suite the needs of both the serious and recreational dancer. We have accommodating schedules that work with the needs of busy families. We are a growing school and have new programs available throu

ghout the dance season. Happy in our new space, we enjoy a streetfront location with plenty of parking in the rear and access to historic Corinthian Hall upstairs.

We are excited about the coming dance season. Wanted highlight some classes that are available.

Baby Dance: Ages 2 to 2 years 11 months
Monday mornings 10-10:45
A fun and creative program that introduces the very young to Ballet and Tap through the use of songs, games, toys, musical instruments and stories in a fun and supportive environment. Mom's can participate!

Kinderdance: Saturdays from 9:15-10:15, Tuesdays from 4:30-5:30.
A 1 hour class consisting of 30 minutes each of Ballet and either Jazz or Tap. The class is designed to introduce the fundamentals of each style of dance focusing on basic technique and movement while reinforcing confidence and self expression.

Adult Classes: Belly Dance and Tap Classes
The Belly Dance class is both fun and highly expressive. It promotes balance, strength, digestion, coordination and confidence. So much fun for all levels. Woman only. So popular last season!
If you want to learn Tap as a beginner, or have had previous training, this is the perfect class. You'll feel like a Broadway dancer in no time while learning fun rhythms and combinations.

We are so happy to announce the start of our 50th Season.
We have had thousands come to our happy place for dance classes and we could't imagine celebrating our anniversary without inviting as many current and former dancers, and their families, to do a performance with the original choreography to the iconic song " "Thriller".

Please share this and spread the word. First class is Wednesday, July 24 at 6:30 at the Dance Gallery. We are located at 523 Franklin Street, Melrose on the 2nd floor.

More info to follow every Friday on this page, on our website dancegallerymelrose.com and on the Melrose Ma Community page.

Today we celebrated my son Christian's 30th birthday. I am so proud of you my son. Not just for all that you have accomplished but, most importantly, for the kind of person that you are, beautiful inside and out. A loving son, caring and devoted husband and a loyal and giving friend. You take nothing for granted and appreciate all that you have. You bring happiness into every life you touch. You are my joy. Happy Birthday my dear boy. I could not love you more!
