Through dance we develop life skills including goal-setting, team work, loyalty, respect, and discipline. We build physical and mental strength, balance, agility, and flexibility.
At Mid Shore Dance Academy our commitment is to nurture creativity, imagination, and healthy physical activity, while engaging in positive group interactions where everyone's success is celebrated.
Here, we develop lifelong friendships, provide service and leadership opportunities, engage with the greater community around us and, perhaps most importantly, empower area youth to be the best versions of themselves; developing their inner strength, confidence, poise, and discipline.

Mrs. Shari is wonderful with children! It's hard to keep a toddlers attention, and she is so gentle and kind teaching them to take turns and follow directions.
