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.

Christmas In Whoville
Hey everyone!! We know that you are all anxiously awaiting Brainerd public school's decision for the 2020-2021 year. However, we want you to know that we still plan on having a dance season. A few things will be different:
- We will be doing temp checks at the doors
- We will be limiting class sizes to accommodate social distancing while in the studio- so register early
- Parents will not be allowed to stay and watch, but we will still try and arrange parent days
- Class times have changed slightly from last year. We have allotted to clean the studios after each class
-We will monitor the enter/exit procedures
- Depending on where the situation is at, masks may or may not be required. It is too soon to determine that. We will do whatever is recommended by the department of health.
*Right now, masks are required in the store per the MN Department of health.
Registration is available online at www.musicgeneral.com
Although we have been asking for customers to wear a mask since we’ve opened, because of state law we are now requiring all customers who enter the building to wear a mask. Thank you.
Now it's easier to sign up for Music General's updates.
