What is Beyond Dance School?

Beyond Dance School is a program for children ages 3-5 who want to explore dance, yoga, fitness, acro, art, music and drama while incorporating academic learning, cognitive, social-emotional and fine motor skills! We’ll dance, craft and practice knowledge skills like alphabet writing, counting, colors, shapes, reading and writing.

Classes are limited to 10 students and you pick your days! Classes are taught by Miss Emily with occasional help from other MPAC instructors or admin. Miss Emily’s full bio can be found on the About Me Page - She has a MA in Teaching, over a decade of experience in public education and over two decades of experience in the dance classroom.
