Have you seen the new sign for the dance studios at Mockingbird and Central? It isn’t actually a new studio, but is a relocation of an old favorite. After 8 years in the Lakewood Shopping Center and 3 more at the YMCA White Rock, Contemporary Ballet Dallas found a new home outside of Lakewood this year. With a more convenient location and more studio space, the adult classes are more accessible than ever.
The new studios allow for four classes at once instead of three, so there have been several classes added. One noticeable add is the “Lunch Time Power Hour” which is a fitness class offered every day at noon. There are additional fitness classes now throughout the week as well, including Yoga Sculpt, Dynamic Barre, Just Barre, Pilates, Cardio Kick Boxing, Dancer Tone, and Core Stretch and Strengthening. Some new dance classes include African, Horton, Drill Team Prep, and Boys Ballet, in addition to all the existing classes.
Of course, there are plenty of children’s classes as well, but the studio’s unique adult program is well known because of the vast amount of genres and ability levels.
Contemporary Ballet Dallas’ resident dance company with the same name has a show Saturday, April 27 with an intriguing title, “Keep Calm & Dance On.” It will be held at the Lakewood Theater in Dallas at 8 p.m.
