We understand that the majority of students at any dance studio do not go on to have a professional dance career. So what is there to gain from the countless hours of practice, the financial investment made, and the personal sacrifice paid in the pursuit of developing talent in the art of dance? Here at Denville Dance Arts Center, we strive to provide our students with not only the technical dance skills to pursue a professional dance career, should they be interested, but more importantly, teach them essential skills that lead to success in whatever they pursue.

Along the way, they will make memories and lifelong friendships! They will learn to be part of a team, time management, have great work habits, and have critical thinking. Goals are made and young dancers learn to work towards attaining those goals.

Proper Dance Attire and Shoes must be worn in all classes. No jewelry or gum.
