About Legacy Performing Arts Academy
From tiny dancers to pre-professionals and adult—Legacy is a non-competitive academy for all ages, all levels, and all styles offering mentorship, commercial opportunities, and a training experience rooted in purpose. Legacy Performing Arts Academy is a premier space for dancers and performers, with year-round and seasonal programs in ballet, jazz, hip hop, pointe, modern, and more. We blend rigorous technique with real-world industry access to help students build confidence, skill, and lasting impact. Guided by a dedicated team of teaching artists and a professional advisory board, we prepare dancers for both the stage and the world beyond it. Our year culminates in a vibrant Spring Concert and a classical all-levels ballet performance.

Artistic Development
Legacy nurtures each dancer’s unique creative voice—from young movers exploring expression to advanced students refining their artistry. Through professional coaching, dancers in all divisions build confidence, presence, storytelling, and movement skills—learning to move with intention and confidence both on stage and in life.
Alongside technique, students gain a deeper understanding of dance as a cultural and historical art form—studying the origins, language, etiquette, and values that shape each style with respect and curiosity. Through group work, collaboration, and shared creative experiences, Legacy also fosters a strong sense of teamwork and community—reminding every dancer they are part of something greater than themselves.
Performance Opportunities
All students participate in our annual Spring Concert, while dancers in the Core and Pre-Professional Divisions (ages 9–18) perform in a Classical All-Levels Ballet Production—featuring excerpts from iconic works such as Swan Lake, Gisselle, and Sleeping Beauty. Additional performance tracks and opportunities are offered throughout the year for advanced and pre-professional students.
Advisory & Industry Support
Legacy’s teaching artists are established performers and choreographers who bring real-world experience directly into the studio. Their expertise ensures that students—whether in the classroom, preparing for professional programs, or performing—receive current, industry-relevant training. This approach equips dancers across all divisions to thrive in any setting, from local stages to professional sets.
