reasons to choose us:
  • 1 - What Type Of Facilities And Floor Are Used?
One of the most important features of the dance studio is the dance floor. At NCDA, we've installed a floating sprung floor with hundreds of foam blocks to cushion the impact of landing, reducing fatigue and preventing injury, while maintaining longevity of the dancers and teachers bodies. We also have observation windows for parents to observe their child's safety, enjoyment and progress.

  • 2 - What Should I Be Looking For In A Teacher?
Teachers at NCDA are Adult University Certified and/or Professionals who are mature, committed and care. They are approachable for questions and communication. Most are full time dance and gymnastic instructors, dedicating their lives to share their expertise and knowledge with hundreds of students. (Biographies are available at the Academy front desk.) Students and Teachers are matched for compatibility for a "win win" situation.

  • 3 - What Type Of Atmosphere Can I Expect?
NCDA nutures a positive atmosphere towards students and parents alike. Classes are structured and follow a curriculum for ultimate progress, bringing out a student's full potential, in a friendly, fun filled family type setting. Spirits must be up for a child to have an open mind to fully benefit the complete learning process. Friendly desk staff are available to assist you before, during and after classes. We carry all attire and shoes for your convenience.
