All students are encouraged to participate in our annual Spring Recital held at Skyline High School
Performing Arts Theatre. Students are given this opportunity to showcase their dance skills and
personalities in front of a live audience of friends and family. We believe this helps sharpen and
solidify skills learned during the year but -- more importantly -- also helps to build self-esteem and
social skills by giving dancers an opportunity to set and reach goals in a group setting.
