our training program
Out on a Limb’s training program is designed to provide a great experience for dancers of all levels, ages, and abilities.
Opportunities range from recreational once-per-week classes to a full pre-professional training program. With a wide variety of dance styles from classical ballet to tap to hip hop and contemporary, our staff of professional dancers inspires and trains students in a challenging and nurturing environment.
Within this environment, our students find a deep desire to excel. They are taught to open their minds and hearts, push their bodies and never stop finding new challenges and new adventures in dance. We are so proud to offer a school that is truly a family, where we can grow and thrive as dancers and people.

performing arts ensemble (PAE)
PAE is for OOAL students who are in levels 3 through 8 who want to experience dance as a full and comprehensive activity that is meant for students to explore the idea of training towards a pre-professional dance theatre track. In PAE the students have extra performing opportunities to hone their skills as well as experience techniques in composition.
Please contact Heather Brockman at heather.brockman@outonalimbdance.org for more information.
Excellent attendance and classroom etiquette along with a good attitude and respect for teachers and fellow classmates is mandatory for all PAE students.
Tuition is a flat rate and is based on the dancer’s level.
