International Academy of Dance in Santa Cruz, CA is a supportive and nurturing dance studio offering classes for dancers of all ages. Specializing in classical ballet, we also offer classes in modern, jazz, lyrical, tap, hip hop, belly dance, zumba, and pilates. Our instructors have been chosen for their ability to instill technique and artistry through their passion and dedication to the art of teaching dance. Their teaching philosophy encourages students to develop style, artistry and individuality, while remaining true to the dance form studied. We offer many stage performing opportunities for our dancers, including the annual Nutcracker at Cabrillos Crocker Theater, a large-scale production in June, and our Emerging Choreographers Showcase in March.
