We are delighted to be celebrating 18 years of service in the Bayonne and Hudson County community. Teaching and educating students in dance and theater for the last 16 years we have had the joy of watching some of our students receive scholarships to Performing Arts High Schools, enter into reputable Dance Companies and the pleasure of watching students turn professional and perform on Broadway in New York City.
Christine Thomas Artistic Director of MHBD&TS received her Master’s Degree from New York University in Dance and Dance Education and would like to assure you that our staff is qualified, educated and experienced in their field. The faculty of MHBD&TS feels that one of the most important aspects of dance training is to provide a sense of well being and self-confidence. It gives a person a feeling of accomplishment and an improved self-image. Dance training not only improves coordination and physical strength; it strengthens discipline, which will in turn, carry over to all areas in a person’s life. The staff at MHBD&TS takes great pleasure in sharing their passion of dance in educating our next generation.
We offer a wide variety of dance technique and movement styles such as: Creative Movement, Ballet, Pointe, Tap, Jazz, Freestyle, Lyrical, Hip Hop, Yoga, Musical Theater and Intensive Study Programs in Ballet and Jazz.
We recommend that all parents participate in their child’s progress by observing class at least once a month. If you cannot observe, in addition to our web site it is imperative that you check at the reception desk for current handouts, newsletters and important information.
