Dance

Pacific West Gymnastics is now offering an exciting new dance program!  We offer five different types of classes for all skill levels.  Levels will be based upon skill card from beginning through advanced.  We will have an informal annual recital, where choreographed routines will be showcased. 

Although we are not a competitive dance program, we intend to offer opportunities to participate in various community events.  For your convenience we will be selling ballet and tap shoes, as well as accessories, in our Pro Shop.
