Classes

Discovery classes are recommended to be taken with at least one other class for two classes per week

Ballet 

Our Ballet Programs are based on the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus, a professional classical Ballet training program using developmentally appropriate exercises and techniques. Ballet classes focus on the classical technique while incorporating the artistic aspects of the dance form. 

​Ballet 2- 7 & 8 year olds

Modern

Modern dance incorporates technical skills with creative exploration to develop performance dynamics, choreographic and improvisational skills.

​Modern 2- 7 & 8 year olds

JAZZ & TAP

Jazz and Tap classes encourage a vitality and enthusiasm for dance while training a versatile dancer. Tap teaches the understanding of the feet as musical instruments and Jazz focuses on developing technique while working on fun choreography.

​Combo Jazz/Tap 2- 7 & 8 year olds

Hip Hop

Hip Hop is a high energy form of dance that evolved from Break dancing and encompasses street style movements, also known as Urban Dance.

​Hip Kids 2- 7 & 8 year olds

Art

Discovery of Art Exploration: Our classes for Level 1/2 students will spend time on drawing practices before diving into our main focus, Mixed Media Projects!  Each class, students will be guided through part of a larger project as we explore a variety of mediums, such as acrylics, watercolors, pastels and sculpture.  The main focus will be on exploring the basics of art and learning new techniques through imagination.

Art 1/2 - 5 to 8 year olds

Dance with heart

At Pegasus Studios we believe that every child should have the opportunity to make positive connections through the arts.  Dance with Heart extends our mission of supporting more families in our community through arts education. The Dance with Heart classes are taught by a certified Rhythm Works instructor, a certified Rhythm Works assistant and teen volunteers from our STEP program will assist the children with special needs.

Please see our Dance with Heart page listed under specialty programs for more details.

Musical theatre

The Little Limelight program is a love letter to starry-eyed children everywhere who dream of the limelight, as well as to every child who is looking for a place to feel seen, valued, and included.   Each class has been carefully developed and is a bright and balanced blend of acting, singing, and dancing. Through our dynamic and age-appropriate performing arts curriculum, students are introduced to Musical Theater concepts through singing, movement, and imaginative play.
5 to 8 year olds

Acro Dance

Acro Dance provides dancers with techniques to improve strength and flexibility training, lengthening and balancing variations while adding Acro tricks to their dance technique.  This class compliments the dancers as it blends seamlessly with the dance steps learned in ballet, jazz, lyrical or modern dance programs, providing an extra flair and excitement into dance choreography and taking their training to the next level.  ​

What people are saying...

When I first arrived at Pegasus I was an 8 year old girl with not many friends and not the best turnout. However, over the years Pegasus has helped me grow and become the person I am today. The supportive environment they have been able to create is unmatched and the teachers are so supportive and kind. They make you feel like you belong the second you enter your class. 

Pegasus has not only helped me create friendships and grow as a dancer, it also helped me grow so much as a person. It has taught me confidence, dedication, teamwork, and above all hard work. I am the person I am today because of Pegasus and I am forever grateful for all it has given me.
Sincerely, Arabella Karim
