A map of the schedule, not a map of towns

Ballet is ages 2 and up and is the class we send most new dancers to if they have never taken anything. Tap is ages 3 and up and needs tap shoes after the trial. Jazz is ages 5 and up and meets on weekday evenings only. Lyrical is ages 6 and up and expects some ballet first. Preschool dance is ages 2–5 and uses morning, afternoon, and Saturday times. Mommy and me is the class where you do not drop off.

Families from Rocklin, Folsom, Lincoln, and nearby communities attend the Roseville studio at Harding Plaza.

Hours for the building are Monday–Thursday 4:00–8:00 p.m. and Saturday 9:00 a.m.–noon. Friday and Sunday are closed. A style can be narrower than the building hours. Jazz does not have a Saturday block. Preschool does not default to 6 p.m.

What a first month feels like

Book a trial with the child’s age in the message. Come in the clothes they can move in. Shoes can wait until you know they will stay. The trial is the placement tool. We watch whether they can stand for the combination, whether they need you in the room, and whether the level is too young or too hard.

After you enroll, tuition is auto-billed on the 1st. Classes are not pro-rated for missed days, holidays, or the two-week summer and winter breaks. Disenrollment needs 30 days of written notice. The phone number for both the trial and a billing question is 916.276.8408. Email is [email protected].

Performances are The Nutcracker in December and the Summer Showcase. The 2026 Nutcracker performance is Saturday, December 19, at Roseville High School. This is not a competition studio. If you want a team that travels every weekend, say that on the call so we can help you decide whether the studio is a good fit.

Who teaches

Melissa Reich is the owner and director. She has taught since 2005 and opened this studio in 2015. She trained in early childhood education. Jayde King has danced since age two and studies child education. Shayla Pinther teaches jazz, ballet, contemporary, and lyrical. Delaney Anderson covers ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, and lyrical. Kima Lee has a B.A. in Dance from Sacramento State and the 2023 Exemplary Student Award.

You meet the teacher who is assigned to that age and style, not a rotating substitute list published as a feature. If a teacher changes, we say so in class. The website is not a live roster of who has the Tuesday 5 p.m. ballet.

Pick a style by the constraint, not by the costume

Start with the constraint that will actually break the plan. If you can only come on Saturday, jazz is out, because jazz is weekday evenings only. If the child is two and will not let go of your hand, mommy and me is the class, not a drop-off ballet level with your name on a waitlist in the hallway. If they are six and have never done ballet, lyrical waits. Ballet is the class that teaches the standing leg. Lyrical borrows it.

Tap needs a child who can stand and listen from about age 3, and it needs tap shoes after the trial. Preschool dance covers ages 2–5 and is built around short attention, lining up, and a turn. It is the right room when they are ready to try the teacher without you on the floor, and the wrong room when separation is still a fight. Ballet from age 2 is pre-ballet: songs, a plié, a bow, then real barre when they are older. Pointe is not a beginner topic. We talk about it around age 10 and only after we have watched the dancer.

You can combine styles when the week can hold them. Ballet plus tap is a normal pair. Ballet, tap, jazz, and lyrical in one season for a first grader is how children get tired and quit. Tell us the other activities on the trial call. The number on the door and on this site is 916.276.8408. Email is [email protected]. The Register Now button opens the Studio Director portal for this studio. The Schedule link in the header opens the live class list. Check the live schedule for current class times.

What enrollment does and does not lock

Monthly enrollment is not a semester you buy in August and cannot leave. It is also not a drop-in. The 1st of the month is the billing date. A missed Tuesday because of a field trip is not refunded. The two-week summer break and the two-week winter break are on the calendar and they are not credited either. If you need to stop, write the notice 30 days ahead. A verbal “we might be done” does not start that clock.

The Nutcracker is in December. The 2026 performance is Saturday, December 19, at Roseville High School. The Summer Showcase is the other main performance. Community shows happen sometimes. None of these are a competition season. If you are looking for a traveling competition team, discuss that with us before booking a trial.

Teachers are Melissa Reich, who has taught since 2005 and opened the studio in 2015; Jayde King; Shayla Pinther; Delaney Anderson; and Kima Lee, who has a B.A. in Dance from Sacramento State and the 2023 Exemplary Student Award. You are placed with the teacher for that age and style. You are not placed by ZIP code.

A useful first call includes four facts: age, any previous class, the days you can be in Roseville, and whether a grown-up has to stay in the room. Please also consider the drive to our Roseville studio. If you are comparing us to a recreation class closer to home, the difference to ask about is who is teaching the little kids and whether you can try a class before you pay. Ask about teacher experience and trial availability when comparing your options.

Shoes are the last purchase, not the first. Ballet slippers, tap shoes, jazz shoes, and foot undies are different objects. Buying all of them before the trial is how families end up with a bag of shoes for a class the child did not like. One style, one trial, then the shoe that style uses. Hair ties are the thing people forget. A teacher cannot see a face that is behind a ponytail that failed in the car.

The header Schedule link is the current grid. If a time on this website and a time in that grid disagree, the grid wins. Pages go stale. The portal is what the office enrolls against. Register Now is the same portal, for families who already know the class. A first-timer should still call or use the contact form so a person places the age before enrolling in a class that may not suit the child’s level.
