Developing strong dancers with
even stronger character.
Serving the Eden Prairie/Chanhassen Minnesota area for over 45 years, Dance Arts Centre provides an inspiring and positive environment where every child can shine. At DAC, we pride ourselves in a unique approach to dance education, focusing on “Character First.”
​
We believe that when children build a foundation of confidence, creativity, and kindness, everything they do, including the art of dance, is filled with joy and growth.
​
Through fun and engaging classes, our dancers explore movement while building coordination, focus, and strength, as well as teamwork, confidence, and self-expression.
​
It is this philosophy that helps DAC dancers fall in love with learning, make lasting friendships, and gain life skills that go far beyond the classroom. We are proud to partner with families in creating a community where every dancer is encouraged, celebrated, and inspired to do their best.
Our Story

Not only will dancers learn dance skills and technique, but also professionalism and grace that will carry them through their dance journey.
Healthy

Building Friendships
We are committed to providing dancers with age-appropriate music, choreography and costumes.
Dance friends are the best friends. The dancers will grow together and build team camaraderie.
