Welcome to the 2025-2026 season at Bel Air Rec Dance! We are so excited to start our first year specializing in ballet, tap, and jazz. At BARD we would love to provide an educational and fun program that is accessible and inclusive for all children ages 4-17 and adults aged 18 and up of any demographic. We strive to provide a strong foundation for beginner dancers and continue education for our more advanced dancers. Please take time to read over everything and if there’s any questions please reach out to us.
Our Teachers
Tap
Ms. Dani grew up dancing many years with Diamond Dance Center (now Supernova) and has a huge passion for tap. She is also the head of our program. Ms. Dani says “I love creating an inclusive program for everyone. Dance is a great way to express yourself and has helped me grow, I can’t wait to share that love with everyone.”
Classroom Policies
We pride ourselves in providing quality dance instruction for your children. The following are the rules and regulations that are required by all teachers and students at our studio.
• Parents are not allowed to stay in the classroom. Parents are allowed to wait quietly in the hall. You are responsible for any children waiting with you.
• Please take children to the restroom at home or at the studio before they come to class.
• It is expected that all dancers come to class prepared, dressed and ready for class. Please arrive in street shoes and change into their dance shoes when they arrive as you could ruin the shoes.
• Only water will be allowed into class. NO FOOD.
• No toys or cell phone usage allowed in class.
• Attendance is very important as it is essential to learning. Please make every effort to attend class.
• Please make every effort to be on time. It is disruptive to the other students to have others coming into class late.
• Finally, a dance classroom is just that, a classroom. All students should be on their best behavior while attending dance class. Be respectful of the other students & the instructors at all times.
• If a child reports to class unprepared in any way, they will be given a warning, and parents will be informed at the end of class. If a child reports to class unprepared the following week, they will be asked not to participate in class for that day.
