Youth Program
Welcome to Sol Youth Programs! We are thrilled to develop programs that help the dancers, choreographers, and producers of tomorrow discover their passions today. Our acclaimed instructors aim to not only teach the skills and knowledge required to dance, but also to help our students develop discipline, self-esteem, and confidence as they challenge themselves and follow their dreams. And of course, we love to have fun along the way!
Our Youth Programs
Our Youth Program is split into two divisions: our Kids Division includes dance classes for kids from age 3 to age 7, while our Teens Division classes are for students aged 13 and older. These programs run on a school year schedule with two semesters: one in the fall and one in the spring.
We also offer Baby Ballet classes year-round that introduce ballet fundamentals to children from ages 2.5 to 4.

Performance Opportunities
Students in our Kids and Teens Divisions will have the opportunity to perform and even compete at several exciting events throughout the year.
Students have performance opportunities every six weeks. This is a great experience for our dance students, giving them the opportunity to challenge themselves with solos and team performances alike, as an important part of their training. They will be working hard to gain the knowledge and skills they need to perform in our studios and in addition to our regular invitations to dance in different venues and festivals around the city. This is definitely an opportunity you don’t want to miss!
