My students come to the Bronx Dance Academy with little to no dance experience, and graduate with acceptances to arts high schools all over the five boroughs. They are dedicated, and hardworking, and take dance for 4.5 hours a week during the school day, with additional rehearsals after school for select students. Students study ballet, modern, contemporary, jazz, hip hop and latin dance styles throughout their 3 years here. We remain one of the only specialized dance middle schools in the Bronx.
