Dance Studio C will be providing young dancers with a variety of classes throughout the summer, along with open enrollment, allowing new dancers to get involved without having to wait for a new registration period.
“A lot of studios close up over the summer,” explained owner, Cory Lucas. “Our classes go all summer long.”
Cory and his wife, Chaney, a dancer who has been teaching for 15 years, opened Dance Studio C in 2011.
The studio offers many different classes for boys and girls, including ballet, tumbling, tap, hip-hop, jazz, lyrical and contemporary. These classes are for dancers as young as 2 years old and all the way up to 18.
Ballet continues to be one of the most popular classes at Dance Studio C.
“Our ballet program continues to get better and stronger,” Cory said. “It’s one of the best in the Valley.”
The princess combo class, for 2- to 5-year-olds, also has been extremely popular. The class even enjoyed a visit from Disney favorites Elsa and Anna, from the movie Frozen.
“Space is limited because it’s so popular,” said Cory.
In addition to traditional dance classes, Dance Studio C offers hour-long tumbling classes for $45 a month, which is half the price of many similar tumbling classes.
Dance Studio C also recently completed tryouts for the fourth year of its Moxie Pom and Dance team. The team, made up of 4- to 16-year-olds, will perform in a variety of events, including parades and half-time shows.
To register, call (480) 748-9859. Dance Studio C is offering a free month of classes (up to a $45 value) for new students who enroll and pay full tuition for their first month.
