Preschool Classes

The most impressionable years of a child's life are their preschool years.  Developing a love for dance when they are young is critical in their continued love for the arts through the rest of their life!  Not only will they gain confidence and independence through dance classes, they will also learn spatial awareness, taking turns, listening, and respect along with the health benefits associated with dance.  Heinz Academy for the Performing Arts prides ourselves on creating a fun and inviting environment for those involved in our preschool classes by encouraging creativity and individualism.
