Dance.tech’s Ages 16+ classes are designed for teens and adults who want to explore dance in a supportive, welcoming environment—whether you’re stepping into a studio for the first time or returning after years away.
These classes emphasize technique, musicality, and personal growth without pressure or comparison. Dancers are encouraged to learn at their own pace while enjoying the physical, creative, and emotional benefits of movement.
A Welcoming Studio Environment
Dance.tech is known throughout the New River Valley for fostering a positive, inclusive studio culture. Ages 16+ classes are designed to:
Encourage confidence and self-expression
Provide clear instruction in a respectful setting
Support dancers with varying goals and experience levels
Instructors meet dancers where they are—helping each individual feel comfortable, capable, and motivated.
Optional Performance Opportunities
Some Ages 16+ dancers may choose to participate in studio performances such as the Nutcracker and Spring Recital. Performance opportunities are optional and approached with care, allowing dancers to decide how they’d like to engage beyond the classroom.

Comfortable dance attire that allows for movement
