Our recreational program is designed for dancers of all ages and dance experiences. This includes young, beginner dancers all the way through our advanced adults! The recreational classes at our studio are taught at a level that will allow dancers who so desire to use them as a stepping stone to join our competition team. They are also designed to allow students who are not interested in dancing competitively and who would like to remain in our recreational program to continue to advance in their dance education. We always seek to help our dancers excel in a positive, safe, and encouraging environment. We offer recreational classes in the styles of Tap, Ballet, Jazz, Hip Hop, and Contemporary/Lyrical. For more information on any of these classes, please contact us! Registration is now open for our 2024-2025 season, with classes beginning September 3rd, 2024!

Each night of our summer classes will have a specific theme, so be sure to follow us on our social media accounts to be among the first to know each theme!
Our Summer Camps will be held across four different weeks in the summer, all with different themes! The information for each camp is below. Each day will be filled with themed dancing, activities, snacks, and more! All our camps are open both to dancers currently registered with our studio and those not currently registered with Storytellers. We limit the number of spots available for each camp, so if you’re interested in your dancer attending any of our camps, we encourage you to register here.
Each camp will have a cost of $150 per dancer, and invoices will be due upon registration in order to reserve your dancer’s spot for the camp. All invoices can either be paid online via debit/credit card or at our studio via cash/check. You can also register while at our studio as well! The individual theme of each day of our camps will be sent out to those registered closer to the starting date of each camp.
