Musical Theater Classes in Chandler, AZ
Musical Theater Classes at Classic Image Dance
Our Musical Theater classes are designed as an add-on class to our core dance curriculum, providing students with an opportunity to grow in their performance skills. In this student-centered environment, we focus on building strong technical foundations, ensuring students develop proper technique through engaging and age-appropriate instruction.
Students will incorporate dancing, movement and acting, helping them to understand and articulate their performance quality. Our instructors use a variety of music selections from Broadway and movie soundtracks, carefully chosen to complement the movement and inspire young dancers. We place great emphasis on the developmental stages of each age group, tailoring our lessons to match the physical and cognitive abilities of our students. As they progress, students are encouraged to refine their technique, explore creative expression, and build confidence in their abilities.
Musical Theater Classes the CID Way
Get StartedMusical Theater is all about performance
Our goal is for every student to fall in LOVE with dance! Whether your child leaps & twirls around the house, wants to dance with their friends, or couldn’t think of anything they’d rather do than be at the studio, we want to embrace their JOY and build upon it. At every age & every stage, fun & fulfillment is part of the process.
Our knowledgeable & nurturing staff blends a high standard of dance education with a creative, student-centered approach, giving students a space to discover and nurture their LOVE for dance.
We believe in a healthy, balanced approach
We realize when our students are young, dance classes with us are fun! We also realize the longer your children are with us, what we offer them is consistent structure and foundation in which the fun turns to function.
We encourage our students to participate in all school activities and support them while always working to create a schedule where they can still keep dance in their lives. We will always strive to provide balanced programming to lift them up in the arts.
