We are so excited to welcome all of our dancers back at our NEW location! You will see on our schedule that several things have changed: our color-coordinated legend has been slightly altered, new teachers are added to our list, and tuition prices have changed. Company Superstar, Co-Star, Guest Star and Producer are the age categories our primary competition uses.

You will also see that we have added a few classes to our schedule! There is a new Princess Performers class for 3-5 year olds (read more about it in our Preschool & Beginner section above), and we’ve added a couple 90-minute, 2x/month classes to help our dancers excel in Jumps & Turns and Tumbling. Some of these classes have special pricing as noted below.

This was our youngest team ever - all preschoolers and kindergarteners!

A FUNdamentals class
for 2 to 5-year-olds

Our whimsical "DPAC Dolls" class is set in a fun and inviting dancing environment, designed specifically with your young dancer in mind. Creative and engaging methods are used to teach the basic technique positions and a combination of introductory skills in ballet, tap, jazz, stretch, and song. Your child will experience creative movement through obstacle courses and the use of props while also learning classroom skills such as listening, watching, and following directions, all in a fun and safe fast-paced environment. This is a great foundational program that will start your young dancer on their path toward moving up into our elementary dance programs with success! Students will need tap shoes and ballet slippers for this class.

We will help your birthday prince or princess and their guests put on their very own show!

Our 360-degree approach

Designed for 5-11+ year-olds, our level 1-2 dancers will develop poise and certainty, learning about straight legs, pointed feet, posture, placement, and stretches while discovering the beautiful world of dance. Our scheduling allows these dancers to take their leveled, core classes together: ballet, jazz, and tap.

Ballet 1: This is a ballet technique class that starts young dancers on their path to classical or contemporary ballet success! They will learn ballet terminology and new and exciting steps, as well as build their technique to succeed in all styles of dance. Students will need ballet slippers for this class

Lyrical 1: For age 6+ and with concurrent ballet enrollment, this class is dedicated to helping dancers grow as a technician and an artist. The dancer will learn to tell a story through movement, become more creative with their personal style, and gain strength in their technique. Students will need ballet slippers for this class.

Ballet

A classical dance form demanding grace and precision and employing formalized steps and gestures set in intricate, flowing steps to create expression.

Jazz

Jazz is a catch-all phrase for a great deal of stage-style and popular dancing. Come and discover the many different styles of jazz, including LA style, street jazz, jazz fusion and commercial jazz.

Jumps & Turns

Learn techniques used from today’s top dancers to achieve power, accuracy and style in across-the-floor progressions and complex turn combinations. While jumps & turns are an integral piece taught during jazz classes, we also off a biweekly specialty class to help dancers reach their full potential.

Tap

From classic broadway tap to street tap, learn the importance of rhythms and different techniques. Come see how DPAC keeps the art of tap alive!

Hip Hop/Jazz Funk

Learn the cutting edge styles of hip hop and jazz funk as seen on today’s hottest videos and dance shows straight from LA choreographers.

Contemporary

Contemporary dance is one of the most popular styles with today’s choreographers. Contemporary is a compilation of different styles of dance, including lyrical, classical ballet, modern dance and hop hop.

Lyrical

A cross between ballet and jazz, lyrical allows the dancer to express emotions by conveying a story through dance technique and choreography.

Tumbling

This is offered as a 90-minute, 2x/mo specialty class for dancers to focus on and grow tumbling skills that can bring their dance to the next level. $70/mo, discount for dancers with 6+ classes

Yes, We’re Moving!

Our home in the Pismo Coast Shopping Center has served us well, but it was not sustainable. The dance studios were too small, and the yearly increases in rent reflected that of a prime shopping location.

DPAC started its journey on the Central Coast on Huston Street, located in the industrial area of Grover Beach, which later became the home for CDMA. There were unsettling concerns about the location when CDMA shut their doors, all of which we believe that, with time, have been resolved. As you know, the safety and continued growth of our dancers is our top priority!

Several factors make this a great home to return to. First, the center is under new ownership that cares deeply about our needs and the safety of our dancers. Second, the new storefronts in the area are now well established, and rather than bringing decline to the area as people feared, they have brought professionalism and discretion, not to mention high levels of security.

This location has only housed dance studios since we first moved in nearly 2 decades ago, and for good reason! It has 3 large studios – one is large enough to prepare our dancers for the stage or support in-house performances seating about 100 people; there are lounge areas for dancers to relax, eat, or get homework done between classes; and this location offers greater general safety as our it provides more privacy for our young dancers.

We will be offering various healthy and affordable snacks and light meals to make up for the loss of shopping options our dancers have become accustomed to.

You will also note that we have increased our tuition. Historically, we have strived to keep dancing affordable and accessible to all, to the extent that we have not raised tuition prices for over a decade! These new rates are in line with rates throughout our county given what we offer. Please know that we never want a dancer to miss out due to financial constraints, which is why DPAC has its own non-profit, scholarship foundation. Please speak to us about the application process if you are in need of assistance.

We also want to give a big thanks to our new landlords who, starting next year, will be donating 10% of our rent back into our scholarship fund to support dancers in our community!
