Overview of Dance Programs at Suffern
The Suffern branch of the YMCA has a well-established non-competitive dance
program offering classes in Creative Movement, Tap, Classical
Ballet, Pointe, Jazz, Lyrical, Modern, Theater Dance, Kids Yoga &
Gymnastics Tumbling. We offer classes for children as young as 2 1/2
through high school. Students will have the opportunity to perform
in our annual spring recital held at Rockland Community College.
We provide a nurturing environment where children will learn to appreciate dance
as a lifelong activity for self-expression, grace, strength,
agility, creativity, and balance. Our teachers are highly qualified
and care about the development of the whole person-mind, body,
spirit- through dance. Consider enrolling your son or daughter in
dance classes at the Suffern branch of the YMCA.
