Full Year 2026-27 (September-May) Schedule
HPSD's September-May (Aug 31, 2026-May 10, 2027) class schedule is chock full of dance for all ages at all levels. We offer studio hip hop, ballet, pre-ballet, jazz, Creative Movement, First Steps, AcroDance, pointe, pilates, musical theater, West African Dance, modern, and much more.
Our schedule is organized by age, initially, and then by dance style.
To help ensure proper class placement, please note that age ranges are based on the student's age as of September 1, 2026. Be sure to review the age requirements carefully before registering. In general, students are expected to remain at the same level for the duration of the year (Sep-Sep).
Enrollment is open until March 1, provided the class is not full. Children (18 and under) are automatically enrolled for the full Sep-May session, and tuition is billed on a monthly basis. Adults (over 18) enroll in season sesssions, Fall and Winter/Spring.
Visit our Registration Page for procedures/policies on registering for classes, tuition/billing, taking a trial class, or dropping/unenrolling from classes.
