COVID 19 Update -
December 1st - Classes are running Level 2.5 (in person and virtual options). We are operating at 10% capacity, which means 7 students max in a room. 

Now accepting enrollments for Spring Semester, starting January 18th. We have room in a few classes, while still maintaining social distancing. 

Plié:
​a creative arts experience for preschool students

What is it?
A dance party every day! As a new mom herself, Ms. Miriam realized the need for preschool students to have a program designed for children who weren't ready or desiring of a traditional preschool program. So she designed a program that would welcome preschool-aged students who would benefit from the free flowing social interaction and emphasis on the arts.  Our program includes dance, art, theater, yoga, and special guest artists in rotation.
 
During dance breaks, we’ll incorporate dance history, dance heroes, dance costume dress-up, and dance stories/movies.

Plié at Durango Dance is a license-exempt childcare program.

Who can attend?
We are currently accepting boys and girls ages 4-5.  Differently-abled students are encouraged to speak with the director about whether we may be the best fit for them and how we can best accommodate them.  Our class maximum ratio is 8 students to 1 teacher.
