THE PEDIGREE OF PARK CITIES DANCERS

Park Cities Dance ballet classes
 with Jacqueline Porter follow the training methods of the world-famous Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, the international academy in rural PA under the direction of Marcia Dale Weary that has trained dozens of principal dancers and teachers worldwide including teachers and dancers with the New York City Ballet, ABT and San Francisco Ballets.  Jacqueline  studied with CPYB in her home state of Pennsylvania before moving to NYC to study with David Howard, Melissa Hayden, Fhinis Jhung, and two dozen of New York'd top jazz and ballet teachers of the past 30 years. Visit the world-famous CPYB here.


Park Cities Dance jazz classes taught by Jacqueline Porter, Roger Lee, Nicole-Hill Clark bring a combined 20 years of  Broadway, National Tour and POP professional experience with world-class productions, casts , directors, choreographers and pops stars including Sir Andrew Lloyd Weber, Brittney Spears, Justin Timberlake and many more. Both have trained with New York and LA's top jazz teachers.

THE PARK CITIES DANCE DISTINCTION

Every dancer regardless of talent, age or body type is trained as if he or she is destined to become a dancer. 
Park Cities Dance is located in gorgeous bright, brand new studios in a prime Park Cities location, with virtually all classes taught by former professional dancers of the highest level. This boutique combination of world-class instruction even for beginners, intimately sized classes, generous personal attention and convenient and plentiful parking combine to make Park Cities Dance classes approximately 15-20% more expensive than other local schools.

By contrast, Park Cities Dance will NEVER pressure you to participate in expensive competitions with further costs of travel, costumes and trophies.  Your dollars go entirely toward world-class training rivaling the finest on offer in Dallas and throughout America.  Select competitions (YAGP, NYCDA) are available to top dancers, should they elect to participate. We have won many top awards and honors at these competitions! Also, select Hip Hop and Drill competitions are available. But we are NOT a "competition" school.
