There’s no better time to enroll your son or daughter in dance classes than when they are still in preschool. That’s the age kids are the most curious and will take to all the lessons they’re being taught. In addition to the physical benefits, there are many other reasons you should consider putting your child into dance classes early.
PDA Bucks
To express our gratitude for Registering at Performing Dance Arts for our 30th anniversary dance season, all registered recreational families will receive $25.00 PDA Bucks that can be used towards PDA Dancewear, shoes or merchandise.
They will be handed out to all the dancers during dancewear fittings or their first class. Throughout the dance season we will run several events/contests that will give dancers an opportunity to win more PDA Bucks’
Once again, our biggest thanks, and we hope to teach your child dance for many years to come.

Client Testimonials
My daughter loves her combo ballet/acro class and was obsessed with the Disney Dance camp this past summer. PDA makes signing up for things and paying bills really easy with their app and online system. Communication is always clear and friendly. They’ve handled COVID safety measures like champs. Highly recommend.
