What are classes like at DanCIS?

We currently divide classes based on age, then ability. The Elementary age group and the Middle/High age group all follow the same basic class structure: Ballet is studied October through December. We have an open house in December for family & friends. In January, other styles of dance are explored, culminating with Jazz in the spring.

What does it cost to dance with DanCIS?

Class instruction and studio space is 100% free. We also provide tights, leotard, and shoes to each student when they start and before recital. However, if they become damaged during the season, we ask that a suitable substitute be purchased for class use. We also ask that any student that still can fit into previous year's dancewear continue to use them as long as possible to reduce our overall expenses.

Where is the DanCIS studio?

Our dance studio is located at the Communities In Schools of Wilkes County 's main office. It is located within the back, left-hand corner of the Wilkes County Education Administration Offices on Cherry Street in North Wilkesboro.
