About Dancewave
45 4th Avenue, Brooklyn NY 11217
Dancewave is a dance center that inspires students to express themselves authentically through an innovative model of dance education. Our unique model combines rigorous training with artistic integrity, and access for all, in a supportive environment. Students are mentored by accomplished dance professionals, which allows for personal growth as well as superior dance education. Dancers have the opportunity to join our pre-professional dance companies, where they gain technical proficiency and self-confidence through training, rehearsals, and performances.
Often, in our community, students do not have a creative outlet in which to express themselves or showcase their talents. Through Dancewave, those students have the opportunity to flourish. Dancewave also gives dancers exposure to college dance programs through master classes, roundtable discussions with college department heads, and performances at Long Island University's Kumble Theatre.
