MAC Dance Academy – The spring session of MAC Dance Academy begins Monday, February 24. MAC Dance Academy is a classically taught dance studio that fosters individuality and fun for all dancers.

MAC Dance Academy runs two ten-week sessions. Caregivers are invited to watch a class during the final week of the fall session and to view a performance at the end of the spring session. Classes are available for ages 2.5 to 8 years. The cost is $160 for MAC members and $185 for non-members.
