Continuing dance classes develop and increase strength, flexibility, coordination, balance, rhythmic accuracy, artistic expression, self-confidence and studio etiquette. Students may enroll in a continuing dance class based on recommendation of the Instructor or the Education Coordinator. Continuing students that are transferring from another dance studio may attend a placement class to determine appropriate class levels in each style.
All students enrolled in our continuing dance classes during the Winter/Spring Session have the opportunity to participate in the SSA Dance Showcase held each year on the weekend following Mother's Day.
Students may enroll in a Continuing Dance class based on recommendation of the Instructor or the Education Director. Questions? Contact Classes@SchauerCenter.org | 262-670-0560, ext 6.
