We focus on body awareness and coordination with fun props that include teddy bears, rose bouquets and ribbons. We begin traditionally at the ballet barre and continue the class in a professional manner.

All students are required to pay a registration fee at the beginning of the school year. The registration fee is $20.00 per family per year. The CDC school year is from September through June and your registration fee will be prorated only if you join mid-year.

Performances

All students attending the Classical Dance Center are invited to dance in the Holiday and June Performances. The Holiday Performance is held at the studio the second or third week in December, with all friends and family invited to attend and enjoy the spirit of the holidays.

The June Performance is held at the Irvine Barclay Theatre and tickets are sold to offset the cost of this professional theater. Costumes must be purchased by the students and ordered in advance.

Students are not required to perform in the annual concerts, however, it is a great experience and a wonderful way for you to see the progress they have achieved throughout their year of hard work.
