Introduce your children to the fun and exciting world of dance at the Center Stage Dance Studio! Their expanded studio is conveniently located at the entrance to Garden State Plaza, just off of Fairview Ave. Proudly celebrating their 12th season, visitors to the center will discover a spacious lobby, dancer waiting area, two dance rooms, ample parking, state-of-the art sound system and an innovative schedule of dance programs. Dance rooms are equipped with floating wood subfloors, providing the proper energy absorption, lateral foot support and resiliency that is needed to prevent injury. Center Stage is also proud to offer an experienced staff that is dedicated to teaching dance in a caring environment. The staff’s goal has always been to develop each child’s talent so that they can reach their highest potential, as well as a love for the art of dance. Classes in ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, hip-hop, pointe and acrobatics are available to students ages 5 and up. Younger children from ages 2½ - 5 are invited to take part in Center Stage’s “Introduction to Movement, Music and Dance” preschool program. Your little ones will develop movement skills, coordination, balance and self-confidence as this active program combines a variety of activities from basic ballet to tumbling and rhythm skills. Center Stage gives each student from the Preschool through advanced classes an opportunity to strut their stuff in a special live show every Spring! Center Stage Dance is also home to wonderful Musical Theatre programs and their own Competition/Performance Team, a dance company that competes and performs for the serious student. Center Stage also offers dance classes for adults! Parents are also encouraged to find out more about all of the dancing and interactive excitement of a Center Stage Dance Studio birthday party package!
