We are beyond proud of all of our dancers for pouring their hearts out on the stage, and getting recognized in the process! Congrats everyone on the overall wins, choreography awards, special awards, and just all around living your best dance lives!

Today marks 5 years that we have been a studio, and we wanted to commemorate it by saying a massive THANK YOU to all of you who have danced into our lives and straight to our hearts. We are so proud of the home we have built, but even more proud of the humans who make it what it is today. Thank you for supporting us, for encouraging us, and for helping to create the kind of place where everyone is welcome to come and share their love of dance! Thank you to our beautiful students who bring life into our home every day. Thank you to the parents who do more for us and their kids than we’ll ever be able to repay. And also a thank you to our unbelievable staff who put every ounce of their heart and soul into every student they teach. We love our little studio, and we know we wouldn’t be able to do this without you, so cheers to 5 years! Can’t wait to see where the next 5 take us! 🎉🎉🎉

🔸10AM - AGES 10 & UNDER

🔸12PM - AGES 11 & UP

EDIT* If you are uncomfortable with coming into the studio, or not ready to leave your house just yet, we will be accepting VIDEO auditions! Email [email protected] your audition submission!

🚨COMPANY AUDITIONS🚨 SUNDAY JUNE 7th! This is our 5th year as a small but disciplined studio who loves to train hard working and determined dancers. We value quality and good training over trophies, and we always encourage our dancers to be the best versions of themselves. We don't like to consider ourselves a "competition studio", but instead look to competitions as a performance opportunity. We attend at least 2 conventions a year, but we let you attend any other convention throughout the year that you'd like! We have plenty of open classes that you can try out if you're interested, so check out our website www.thehargestacademy.com for our schedule and any more information. We look forward to having you!

We’re very excited to have 2 guest teachers coming to join us at the studio for some master classes this summer! First up in June, we have Melissa Cassidy, and in July we’ll welcome Lizzie Clark! They will each be teaching two days of classes, separated by levels, so check the website for more details and pricing! Classes are by pre-registration only as we will be limiting the number of spots available, so sign up through our mindbody app now and don’t miss out!

HAPPY LAST DAY OF REGULAR CLASSES! This has been one crazy year, but we’re finally to the end of the season. We’re heartbroken for all of our dancers that didn’t get the chance to perform the last few months, but we’re looking ahead to Summer and getting back to normal for next year! Our studio is closed for Memorial Weekend, but then we’re back at it for Summer classes starting June 1st! We also have our COMPANY AUDITIONS on June 7th (and don’t forget we’re accepting video submissions as well!), plus a few master classes happening! In July we’ll have our 2 Summer intensives, July 20-23 & July 27-30, and then our fall classes will start back August 31st. Swipe for the official calendar! Let’s enjoy this Summer and do what we love most...dance! 💃💃💃
