Longwood Performing Arts, a dance studio in Southern Chester County, PA, has been training students in the fine art of dance since 1978. Our highly experienced faculty offers top quality training in several fields of dance: ballet, pointe, jazz, tap, modern, lyrical and hip-hop. Students are encouraged to be well rounded dancers as well as versatile performers. At Longwood Performing Arts, we feel that the art of dance is a wonderful way to help children develop a positive outlet for their creativity. We also believe that dance helps children with their confidence in many other areas of their lives. Dance is not only a wonderful form of exercise for the body but also for the mind. Classes are carefully structured according to the age and ability of students with each one instructed as an individual. Whether students seek a strong foundation for a potential professional career, or training for personal enjoyment, Longwood Performing Arts provides a positive and comfortable environment in which they can learn.
