KSD is the place to be!

This fall will mark the start of Karen’s School of Dance’s 27th year in business. It’s very exciting to think that we started up in October of 1986 in a one room studio with only 80 dancers! Since then KSD has moved three times to larger locations and expanded once. We are getting ready for our next expansion right now! We will not only be expanding our programs and what we offer but we will also be adding a fifth dance room.

Karen’s School of Dance offers classes in jazz, tap, ballet, pointe, lyrical, modern, hip-hop, musical theater, and contemporary. We will be adding drama and gymnastics to our program this fall, giving our dancers more opportunities to study the performing arts. KSD also currently has a Zumba and aerobics program offered five days a week, and we will be adding personal training program as well this fall. While we have been blessed with many new students in recent years, we definitely pride ourselves on keeping our class sizes small. We like to make sure that every student receives the personal attention that they deserve!

KSD offers three different categories of programs (recreational, competitive, and pre-professional programs) as well as a wide variety of levels in each of the classes offered. We offer a progressive based technique, ensuring that the students continuously learn new technique so that they can progress and move up each year. Students can attend class as little as once per week or as often as every day. The KSD staff is made up of dedicated and talented teachers, all believing in what they do. “Dream, believe, achieve” is our motto and we teach it to our dancers regularly. We teach them to believe in themselves and that all things are possible if they put their mind to it.

At Karen’s School of Dance not only do we provide quality dance training, but we teach life lessons and help our dancers build lifelong friendships while having fun! Students are encouraged to participate in all studio-wide activities, whether they take class once a week or every day of the week. We hold spirit weeks for the dancers to take part in, free open house classes complete with prizes, Halloween contests and dress up, as well as studio picnics and parties! A fun time is guaranteed to be had by all at KSD.

When searching for a dance studio, look for good technical training, dedicated teachers, a variety of programs and levels, and a good safe environment in which to dance. Karen’s School of Dance is a family oriented studio and we encourage all parents to get and stay involved. Dance should be a fun-filled activity and prove to be a rewarding experience.
