Dance registration closes January 30th. After that, the next chance is summer camps or June 2026, when the 2026-27 registration opens.
Hi, I’m Saskia, Dance Director at ROOTS Academy.
Some kids know they want to dance. Others are curious but shy. And some parents want their child to move more, try something physical, maybe find a place where they belong.
Whatever brought you here, Free Trial Week is the low-pressure way to find out. Your dancer joins a real class, meets the teacher, and you’ll see pretty quickly if this is their thing.
Dance registration closes January 30th—after that, the next chance is summer camps or June 2026. But this week is just about trying it.

who will teach my child?
The teacher shapes everything—whether your child walks in nervous and leaves excited, or the other way around.
Our dance instructors aren’t just talented; they’re warm. They notice the shy kid in the back. They know how to challenge without discouraging. They make the studio feel safe enough to mess up and try again.
We’ll place your dancer in the right class for their age and experience. If it’s not the right fit, we’ll find another.
Just a few of our over 20 teachers…

What makes Roots truly special is the community. The dancers are united in a mission bigger than themselves, and the staff works tirelessly to create a positive, supportive environment where every student feels they belong. The focus on The Roots Way—mindset, excellence, and people matter—shines through in every class. Mentors model kindness, discipline, and encouragement. Families are wow’d not only by the performances, but by the joy and sense of “I can do this” that students carry home.
Roots is more than a studio. It’s a place where kids grow as artists and as people, and where families feel part of something extraordinary. We are so grateful to be part of this community!
