Allegro Dance Welcomes You!

As we begin to slowly change our focus from Summer to Fall, registration for the 2021-2022 dance season is ramping up! Allegro Dance will be starting its sixth year in business this Fall and we are excited to watch our returning students continue to grow and develop as lovely dancers! We are also looking forward to meeting SO MANY new families join our studio! If you haven’t registered yet, we welcome you to take the leap and join our dance family! Below is a little bit about what we offer!

Whether your child is a beginner student, looking to add dance into their weekly schedule as a new hobby, or has dance experience and is looking to take their training to the next level, we offer a supportive and inclusive environment for all dancers.

We offer beginning classes in all age groups so your child can start dance at any age!

For those looking to make dance a bigger part of their lives, we offer a pre-professional division of Ballet classes. This is an invite only program where dancers are selected to join our classes with other experienced ballet dancers. These dancers learn classical variations and compete at YAGP. We also perform full length Ballets! Dancers in our pre-professional ballet program take classes in Ballet, Progressing Ballet Technique, Stretch/Conditioning and Pointe. For placement into our program, please email info@allegrodancemi.com!

If your dancer is looking for more performance and competition opportunities, we have three different levels of our performance company, ADPC. ADPC performs around the community, attends conventions and competes each season! If you are interested in setting up an audition to join ADPC, please email info@allegrodancemi.com.

The staff at Allegro Dance works with each dancer individually to help develop a plan to put them on a road to success-whatever their goals may be! We are here to help you in any way that we can!

Welcome Progressing Ballet Technique to Allegro Dance!

Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) is an innovative body-conditioning and strengthening program developed by Marie Walton-Mahon for students to understand the depth of training muscle memory in achieving their personal best. One of the important elements used in the PBT method is muscle memory which helps to improve students' understanding of core stability, weight placement and alignment. Each exercise in the PBT program has been developed with care and guidance by Marie Walton-Mahon alongwith a team of physiotherapists.


Miss Jenn is excited about bringing PBT to Allegro Dance this Fall! She received her certification in the PBT method on May 17, 2020. The students will love this method and the technical results and injury prevention it provides!
