Dear Children’s Division families,
We are happy to announce that registration is now open for our Eastside Summer Dance Workshops!
Students ages 5–7 participate in a week-long workshop session meeting daily at the Francia Russell Center in Bellevue for three hours. Each week-long morning session has a different ballet-related theme (George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®, Cinderella, Swan Lake), and afternoon sessions draw creative inspiration from beloved tales of Oz and The Little Mermaid.
Each day includes an hour-long dance class, music class, story, craft project and a break for a snack. Sessions culminate with an informal mini performance featuring choreography relating to that week’s theme and scenery and props created by the students.
Please use the links below to register. Space is limited; classes fill on a first-come, first-served basis.
*Students must turn 5 by July 1, 2026
**Students may sign up for multiple sessions.
We hope to see you this summer!
