  • MUSICAL BALLET - We recently enjoyed donating the performance of "Beautiful Imperfection," an original musical ballet written by Robyn Fixell and Lisa McKinnis to FishHouse Church in Cambridge, MN on August 27th. The musical highlights all of our students' talents in drama, music, and dance.  Thank you Fish House for having us!  While we have finished performing "Beautiful Imperfection" Musical Ballet we are available to perform small group dance performances upon request.  We have performed for womens' retreats, church services, and community events. Our students love to perform - so give us a call at 612-991-9556.  

 Jumping Lizards!  Oh, that's Levi!! This guy can leap and dance!  Levi is an Intermediate II student who is setting the stage for our community in many ways - he first of all demonstrates leadership, creativity, and bravery for doing what he really enjoys - and he excells at it.  We are hoping that more and more people will become aware that dance is NOT just for the girls.  Come on guys what are you afraid of after all ... The male dancer brings the excitement of leaps, pas de deux, and athletics that the make dance complete.  Levi also participates in acting ... and can memorize at length.  His most recent character with In His Steps Ballet & performing arts company was the lead male in Beautiful Imperfection in which he duals the other guy for the gal or shall we say gals.  Levi also performs with Play, Inc. one of our local theater companies. 
While we focus on ballet as our primary form of instruction we also offer tap, jazz, boy's only class, piano, art, drama, and vocal instruction. We provide instruction for students ages 3 1/2 (preschool) through adults.  Beginner piano students should have begun to read.
