Let us first teach little children to breathe, to vibrate, to feel, and to become one with the general harmony and
movement of nature.  Let us first produce a beautiful human being, a dancing child.   ~ Isadora Duncan

Gotta DANCE! School of Performing Arts, Inc., located in Prince George, Virginia is in its seventh year of operation.  The studio is centrally located in the tri-cities area and is minutes from Fort Lee.  Since its grand opening, Gotta DANCE! has grown from one to two studios, both conveniently located within the same building.  Each dance room has a professionally installed sprung dance floor. This floor prevents shin splints and ligament injuries most commonly attributed to rigid surfaces. It is ideal for all forms of dance and enhances the dancers' performance. Gotta DANCE! offers classes in the following disciplines:  ballet (Cecchetti Method), pointe, lyrical, jazz, theatre jazz, hip hop, tap, modern, gymnastics, baton and pilates.  We offer classes for ages 2 and up!  Our philosophy at Gotta DANCE! is to provide a positive and well structured environment for each of our dancers.  We also believe in taking hold of all opportunities that come our way!  Our students are given the opportunity to perform in Christmas parades, tree lighting ceremonies, dance competitions, dance workshops, dance classes at Broadway Dance Center in New York City and The Virginia Dance Festival, a benefit for Richmond Children's Hospital.  We have also had the honor to have Lainie Munro, New York City based choreographer and performer, conduct dance workshops at our studio.  We take pride in knowing that any student who comes to dance with us leaves us with a broader knowledge of dance and a higher self-esteem.
