Choosing an activity is about more than finding a class that fits your schedule—it's about finding a place where you or your child will feel supported, encouraged, and inspired.
Since 1991, The Academy of Expressive Dance has been committed to providing a welcoming, performance-based environment where every student is known, celebrated, and given the opportunity to grow at their own pace.
Our tuition reflects not only quality instruction, but the personal attention, creativity, and sense of community that make the Academy experience unique.
Investing in More than just Classes
Academy Dance Season
September – June
Our Academy Dance Programs include Little Sparkles, Ballet, Jazz, and Tap, with classes running from September through June.
Tuition is based on the number and length of classes each student takes.
Featured Sessions
Looking for something with a little more flexibility?
Our Featured Sessions include Creative Arts, Adult Dance, Kids & Teen Creative Sessions, drama, flexibility, workshops, and other specialty classes offered throughout the year.
Because these programs vary in length and content, tuition is listed with each Featured Session when registration opens.
Payment Information
We want registering for classes to be simple and convenient.
Academy Dance Program tuition is paid according to the payment options available for the current season. Please note that for payment plans, there is a financing fee added to each payment.
Featured Sessions are paid in full when registering online through our website page.
If you have any questions about tuition or payment options, we're always happy to help.

Looking at more than one class?Many of our students enjoy taking multiple classes. We'd be happy to help you build the combination that's right for your dancer. We are pleased to offer multi-class discounts, including siblings that live in the same household.
Academy Membership Fee
Your annual membership fee of $45 helps create many of the special moments that make the Academy experience unique, including:
-
Holiday activities and celebrations
-
Annual keepsake photo ornament
-
Creative classroom supplies
-
Special studio activities and community events throughout the season
-
Your dancer's handbook (agenda)
It's all part of creating the welcoming, family atmosphere that our students look forward to each year.
Our Four-Class Welcome Period
We understand that beginning something new takes time.
Rather than expecting children to decide after a single class, every new Academy Dance student is invited to experience their first four classes before deciding whether the program is the right fit.
This gives children the opportunity to become comfortable with their classmates, settle into the routine, and experience what the Academy is truly about.
If, after the first four classes, you feel the Academy isn't the right fit for your child, simply let us know before continuing with the season. We'll refund your tuition, less the classes attended.
After four weeks, classes naturally become more established, choreography begins to develop, and friendships start to grow. This allows us to provide the best possible experience for both new and returning students while maintaining the supportive environment our Academy families value.


Small Classes. Big Encouragement.
Every student deserves individual attention.
To ensure each dancer receives the guidance, encouragement, and personal support they deserve, class sizes are intentionally kept small.
Once a class is full, we begin a waiting list, so we encourage early registration whenever possible
HAVE QUESTIONS?
Every family is different, and we'd love to help you choose the program that's the best fit.
If you're unsure about class placement, tuition, or where to begin, please don't hesitate to reach out.
