Classes are held during the regular school year; following the Boston Public School calendar. Tuition rates depend on level and number of instruction hours.
The Summer Dance Program includes the Intensive Division for students ages ten to 18. In addition to classes, all students participate in daily rehearsal periods in preparation for a final performance held at the end of the program. Students must audition for placement in the Intermediate or Advanced levels. Tuition is $1,555, plus a $20 registration fee.

Mateo and his staff have created one of the best youth programs in the city. The faculty is excellent; the facility awe inspiring; and the attention to holistic youth development second to none. Run to register your child today!
Attended Nutcracker performance in 2005 and am looking forward to taking my grandchildren in 2006. It is by far a better more intimate performance than what I saw in Boston. Treat yourself - don't miss it this year.
