Dancewave's popular Summer Dance Intensive for teens takes place the last two weeks of August, and features classes in ballet and modern, and elective workshops in choreography, partnering, Yoga, Pilates, and Swing Dance.

Birthday parties with a dance theme can be held at the studio, including celebrations incorporating hip hop, ballet, music video, Broadway, or yoga.
