Current Schedules
At Metro Dance Academy we work hard to offer our dance classes and gymnastics programs at times that will work for your family’s lifestyle. You’ll find the latest schedules by opening the links below.
The dance class schedule runs parallel to the school year (September through June) with a Winter show in December, and an end of year Spring Dance Showcase in June. Our intention is to have all dancers enrolled in the fall so the group can learn together at the same pace and become close with fellow dancers.
