We make beginnings special.
Come Join the Fun!
“Tippy Toes Rose”, the dancing elephant, welcomes you to our dance family. We love ballet, tap, and having fun. Children of all ages can learn the fundamentals of dance in a safe and comfortable atmosphere. Parents are welcome to observe each and every class!
What makes us special?
Friendly Teachers.
Our teachers love working with children of all ages. It shows in their smiles and kind words of encouragement. We understand the educational value in the art of dance and self expression.
Parent Observation.
There’s no need to wait for “Parent Observation Day”. Here at Tippy Toes it’s every day! We specially built our studios to accommodate one observer per student right inside the dance room.
Best Show in Town.
Backdrops, special lighting, and amazing props make our show a truly entertaining event. We choose a theme and each student gets to play a part. The stage is calling!
