We offer teens and young adults a variety of programming options, including full-year recreational classes, drop-in classes, competitive dance, leading musical theatre roles, mentorships, and high school co-ops!

Teen Drop-in Classes

Teen Dancers at the Barre

Teen Bootcamp offers students a physical outlet outside the structure of a regular dance program. There are no commitments to yearly recitals or group dances—just dedicated class time focused on alignment, breath, strength, and embodied movement.

Sign up as a recurring weekly student or drop in as you wish!

Mondays at 8:00 pm from September to June.

Competitive Dance Training

Railpath Arts Academy (RAA) is our most intensive and artistically immersive program. Students receive physical training both individually and as a team, focusing on their specific aspirations in dance. In addition to comprehensive class programming, students are actively encouraged to assume leadership roles within the studio.

Dancers interested in this program should be prepared for rigorous training that emphasizes dedication, passion, creativity, physical strength, and eagerness. These qualities are cultivated and practiced through weekly classes and multiple performance opportunities.

Career and Personal Mentorship

Dance and Musical Theatre skills are essential life skills, and we are passionate about nurturing dance, acting and vocal training as a vehicle for personal growth and self-expression. Beyond technique, we foster skills such as time management, goal setting, confidence, and team building. Whether you're a high school student or transitioning into adulthood, a TRAC student or not, we're here to help you achieve your specific goals and define what success may look like to you at this moment. We offer guidance in goal mapping, offer industry advice, find specialized experiences, write reference letters, teach you to build a resume or write an invoice, and remain an unwavering support system through the highs and lows of young adolescence and adulthood. Mentorship opportunities are available in Dance, Choreography, Musical Theatre, Film and TV, Song Writing, Vocal and/or Acting Training and beyond!
