Dance Program

Si View Dance is a year round program

Our winter/spring quarter: Students enrolled in all dance classes are eligible to participate in our Spring recital on Sunday May 24th. The theme of our May recital is Dancing Into Youth Heart. A Recital Fee of $42 (which includes costume) must be paid by check (payable to Sara Werner) on the first day of class. If you miss the first day of class, the last opportunity to be fitted for a recital costume will be Friday, February 6th. Dance classes are formatted as limited viewing. Parents will be able to watch students on the first and last day of class. No classes held the week of 2/16 or 4/6 unless noted.

Our winter quarter in the longest and most involved. During the 4 and half months we prepare for our spring recital. A small recital fee is collected from participating students and we order stage costumes. Each year we have a different theme and all the classes perform together at Mt Si High School. Our recital is planned for mid-May.

Summer is a time for FUN. It is camp time at Si View and in select weeks in July and August there are many dance camps to choose from. Each year we bring back by popular demand 'The Little Princess Ballet Camp'. Combining dance, crafts and games we meet for one full week preparing for our final day show. We offer camps in jazz, ballet and musical theatre for ages 3-16 years old.

Come join our ever growing program. We are committed to the community in providing quality dance classes at great price. There is surly a class for your student. We look forward to meeting you and your family.
