Founded by Mary Carbonara and focused on the creative, cognitive and physical development of each child, Hamster Dance Academy offers dance and creative movement instruction for children age 4 through 12.

Students will explore all aspects of movement and movement creation while learning healthy and efficient dance technique derived from ballet, modern and jazz, while also making connections to their age/­level academic learning. With over 25 years of teaching experience working with students of all ages, all of our youth classes are playful and rigorous while inspiring the creative and critical participation of each child.
