Peninsula School of Performing Arts was formed to bring high quality dance to children and adults in the Peninsula and South Bay areas. Beginning with Pre-Ballet, Pre-Tap & Hippity Hop, children are given a strong foundation of dance techniques mixed with creative movement and dramatic expression.

 

At age 5, the program expands to include full hour ballet, tap, hip hop & jazz classes. Based on the knowledge that ballet is necessary for all dancers, we encourage everyone to stay in ballet throughout their dance training. For those students who show a talent and love of ballet, we offer a full ballet program from elementary to professional level. In addition, serious ballet students ages 11 and have the opportunity to be coached for YAGP competition, and the leading roles in our Sping Ballet productions and the Nutcracker.

 

We are pleased to offer a performing and competition team open to the students of PSPA. All dancers attend classes at PSPA and are invited to audition for any of the teams in PSPA Dance Company. The PSPA Competition Team is under the direction of Joanna Burt & Tita Boulger. We provide a safe and nurturing environment for young dancers that wish to take their dancing to the next level. Advanced dancers are pushed to their highest levels through coaching and competitions.

 

We round out our dance program with tap, ballet, yoga, stretch, and jazz for adults and summer workshops for adults and children.
