Founded in 2011, the studio prides itself on providing a warm and welcoming environment where individuals of all ages and abilities can explore the art of dance without judgment or competition. With a focus on proper technique, emotional well-being, and inclusivity, Dance Habit offers a range of classes for children, juniors, and adults, emphasizing progress over perfection and celebrating individuality.
At Dance Habit, children can participate in play-based dance programs that not only teach foundational dance skills but also promote emotional well-being and self-regulation. Junior classes help young dancers develop focus, confidence, and kindness, while senior classes emphasize age-appropriate instruction and costumes to instill valuable life skills such as goal-setting and delayed gratification. The studio also offers specialized programs like Rhythm Works for children with learning differences, ensuring a safe and supportive learning environment for all students.
With a team of dedicated instructors who prioritize kindness, inclusivity, and social justice, Dance Habit aims to empower individuals to embrace movement, express themselves, and build confidence both on and off the dance floor. Through a commitment to diversity and inclusion, the studio creates a sense of belonging for everyone, regardless of age, body type, ability, race, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation. By focusing on progress, community, and personal growth, Dance Habit strives to make dance a transformative and enriching experience for all participants.
