Since 1979, Music General has been a dance studio committed to the philosophy that a dancer’s eduction should consist of precise, technical training and a chance to grow, be inspired and to perform as an artist should. Music General is passionately committed to providing all dancers with the highest quality dance education in a fun, family-friendly environment. Out professional staff is well trained, with over 40 years of experience in the dance industry. We believe that through caring, detail oriented instruction, every dancer can be inspired to find the creativity inside himself/herself. We feel strongly that dance promotes confidence, self-respect, teamwork and discipline while contributing to a dancer’s physical and emotional health. Music General wants to inspire a lasting love for dance through artistic excellence, ample performance opportunities and superb educational instruction. We invite you to join the Music General family and hope that our love for dance will soon be yours.
