Which Summer Dance Class Is Your Tiny Tot Ready For?

June 14, 2026

Hunting for a summer activity that actually burns some of that endless energy? If your little one twirls through the kitchen, bounces in the grocery cart, and can't hear music without wiggling, a summer dance class might be exactly the thing. The only question left is which one. Mommy & Me? Creative Dance? Tumbling? Ballet? Which is actually right for my kid?

Here's the good news: there's no wrong answer, and you don't have to guess. We built a quick, playful quiz to take the pressure off. Answer three simple questions about your child's age, what they love to do, and their personality, and we'll point you to the class that fits them best this summer.

Our studio is in Hauppauge, just minutes from Commack, Smithtown, Nesconset, Kings Park, East Northport, and Dix Hills, so a great summer activity is closer than you think.

It takes about 60 seconds. Go with your gut. You know your kid better than anyone.

Which class is my child ready for?

Question 1 of 3

How old is your little dancer?

Remember: ages are guides, not hard rules. Every child develops at their own pace, and our instructors are always happy to help you find the perfect starting point. If your dancer lands between two classes, that's completely normal, and a great thing to chat with us about.

A Quick Look at the Summer Classes

Our Tiny Tots Summer program runs July 14 to August 27 at our Hauppauge studio, with classes grouped by age and developmental stage so your child is always surrounded by kids at a similar level. Here's the lineup the quiz is matching to:

  • Mommy & Me (12 months and up): a bonding class with you right beside them. Tuesdays, 10:00 AM.
  • Creative Dance I (ages 2 to 4): the gentle first drop-off class. Tuesdays, 4:00 PM.
  • Creative Dance II (ages 2 to 4): more structure and the start of real dance vocabulary. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:00 PM.
  • Beginner Tumbling (ages 3 to 5, NEW): a playful first taste of tumbling. Wednesdays, 4:00 PM.
  • Ballet/Lyrical (ages 5 to 7): grace, posture, and the classical foundations under every style. Tuesdays, 4:00 PM.
  • Hip Hop/Acro (ages 5 to 7): confidence and coordination through hip hop energy and beginner acro. Tuesdays, 5:00 PM.

Flexible Pricing That Fits a Summer Schedule

Keep it simple: pick the one class that fits your dancer, and come the same day each week. Then choose how many weeks fit your summer.

  • Walk-In: $25 (one class, one week)
  • 4-Week Pass: $80 ($20 a week)
  • Full Summer: $150 (your class every week, save $25)

These are low-pressure, just-for-fun classes, so there's no audition and no commitment beyond the summer. It's a relaxed way to test the waters: seven weeks instead of a full semester, and a lot of our year-round families started with exactly one summer session.
