Our classes are enrolling on an ongoing basis all year long.  We believe that whether you are dancing/cheering for fun OR you are more serious, we have a class for you no matter what the season.  We have a full schedule of classes even in the summer months to continue your training.  We have drop in instructors that visit us for specialty classes during the year too.  These instructors are former Elite dancers and cheerleaders who are now performing at the college and pro levels.  They bring new exciting material to the program when they can drop in for us!  Our regular staff is talented, experienced, and many hold professional degrees.  Many of our younger assistant teachers are among the most skilled dancers and cheerleaders in the Eastern Washington area.  Several times a year, we bring in professional choreographers and teachers from Seattle, Los Angeles and New York to offer clinics and workshops.  Outstanding classes & outstanding instructors!
