Israeli Dance
Maintaining Jewish culture and tradition is the goal of Rikudim—circle and line dances. Our students learn Rikudim and dance choreographies throughout the year in a fun, energetic, and supportive environment.

Prime Dance Center (PDC)
Directed by the talented Joanne “Poki” Niego, our Jazz, Hip-Hop, Ballet, Contemporary, and Jumps & Turns classes are nationally recognized. For three consecutive years, our team has won the regional dance competitions and has placed 1st and 2nd in national competitions.

Competitive Dance Teams
This class allows dancers to participate in a higher level of training and perform in competitions! Our dancers learn the value of hard work and dedication, which helps develop a great work ethic. All Teams will require an audition. In order to audition, you will need to pay a $200 Pre-Registration deposit. If your daughter doesn’t make the Team, that deposit will be credited towards any other class of refunded back to you.
