Two weeks left to take advantage of early bird dance discounts
Offered by Palmdale Playhouse
Dance enthusiasts have until Thursday, Aug. 9, to take advantage of the early bird discounts being offered by Palmdale Playhouse for its upcoming tap, jazz and ballet dance classes.
Performance tap and jazz classes begin Aug. 6. A non-performance exercise ballet class for teens and adults and performance ballet classes start Aug. 7. Fall session fees are $70 for Palmdale residents ($60 with early bird sign-up) and $90 non-residents ($80 with early bird sign-up).
Dance classes for the fall session will conclude with two performances at the Palmdale Playhouse in December.
“These city-run classes are designed to provide the students with a comprehensive and enriching dance education and an opportunity to develop performance skills,” said Theatre Operations Coordinator Debbie Barrientes. “Classes aim to work on technique, creativity and expression, and class sizes are limited to ensure that each student receives the positive, consistent attention needed to develop their unique abilities as a dancer, whether their interests are recreational or professional. Class sizes are limited and fill up fast, so I encourage everyone interested to register early,” added Barrientes.
The Palmdale Playhouse is located at 38334 10th St. East in Palmdale.
