To provide a nurturing and disciplined environment for children to learn the art and craft of dance. To provide a serious, well-rounded training facility focusing on the development of dancers artistically, physically, and professionally.
Our goal is that each student experience invaluable life lessons as they grow in an artistic environment. No matter the dancers age or level, there is a place for everyone at Miami Dance Collective! The Studio Program offers a technique-focused program for recreational dancers ages toddler through teen. With our amazing faculty and state-of-the-art facility, we are confident that every child will enjoy learning ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, and creative movement.
