We’re excited to offer an incredible training opportunity for our dancers ages 12 and up! Brooklyn O’Connor will be joining us for two exclusive Strength & Tricks Masterclasses designed to help dancers become stronger, more athletic, and more versatile performers.

Monday, August 10
🕠 5:30–7:00 PM

Tuesday, August 11
🕧 12:30–2:00 PM

Ages: 12+
Cost: $50 per class

These masterclasses will focus on learning exciting new tricks, building strength, increasing flexibility, improving body control, and developing the power needed for today’s dance world.

The expectations for dancers continue to grow. Whether they dream of performing on Broadway, competing, or pursuing dance in college, strength and athleticism are just as important as beautiful technique. Dancers who invest in this type of training gain confidence, reduce their risk of injury, and develop skills that set them apart in auditions and performances.

This is not a class we offer every week. It’s a unique opportunity to train with a guest instructor in a small-group setting where dancers will receive individualized attention and corrections.

Space is limited to ensure every dancer gets the most out of the experience. Once the class is full, registration will close.

If your dancer is ready to challenge themselves, learn new skills, and head into the fall season stronger than ever, don’t wait to reserve their spot!

We can’t wait to see everyone there!

At Starbound Regionals 2026!

TESTIMONIALS

I Cannot Recommend the Dance Collective Enough!

I began dancing at the Dance Collective when I was a junior in highschool, although I had worked with Ally on shows previously. I was incredibly nervous, being new to dance but the environment that Ally and her teachers created alleviated any worry or anxiety I had. I...

Studio Director Does an Amazing Job of Creating Community

I have been a dance mom for 27 years now, in three different states, and this is by far the best studio any of my kids have had the privilege of dancing at. (The others were in the NYC area and in the Seacoast, which are much more populated — so this is saying...
