Trial Classes: We invite all dancers to try a class in advance before signing up for a full session. We offer one free trial class in advance of registration for new students only. You do not need dance attire/shoes for the trial lesson; something your dancer can move in and barefoot works great. (ie, leggings and a t-shirt) Please see below for information on class attire once you register for the class. Thank you so much; I look forward to dancing with you!

Make-up Policy: We offer makeup classes for any missed classes. If you would like to make up a class, please contact the studioto schedule it in advance, including your child’s full name, requested class, and the date. We do not offer makeups for classes listed as full.

Please let us know if there is a class or age group you would like to see on our schedule or contact director Karen Gladis at 818-395-3454 (text ok) or email twinkletoeshidesert@gmail.com
