Our Studio

The American Academy of Dance takes pride in providing a nurturing and safe environment where anyone from the youngest to the oldest can come to explore the basic connection of movement to music and rhythm. Young dancers can explore the fundamentals of dance with imagination and self-expression. Intermediate dancers create a strong foundation which inspires self confidence. Advanced dancers focus on strong technique and performance skills that challenge the trained dancer to reach their full potential. Adult dancers get great exercise in a fun and relaxing atmosphere.

Theater Trips present the opportunity to see what is currently on stage in the dance and theater world is considered by our school a part of our students education. For the enjoyment of our parents, students, and friends , tickets at a discount are made available to chosen productions two to three times per season.

Community service performances offer our students a chance to bring their love of dance to others. Programs have been presented at venues such as the Mansfield Food Pantry Walkathon and Epoch, an assisted living center for the elderly.
