We are dedicated to the highest quality of dance instruction. Students are carefully placed in the class that will be best suited to their individual and potential of advancement.
Terpsichore was established in the summer of 1979. Classes were held in the Knights of Columbus in Monroe. That autumn, classes were moved to the Grace Episcopal Church. Two years later we expanded to a second location at the Monroe Methodist Church. In 1990, we moved to our current location on Route 17M in Harriman.

Placement: Teacher recommendations for class placement are based on the student's understanding, application of technique and physical ability. The curriculum at Terpsichore follows logical progression from basic fundamentals of dance through advanced steps and combinations in a variety of disciplines. Each teacher takes great care in considering each and every student for placement in a level which is compatible with his or her current ability and encourages them to progress. We appreciate your understanding of this policy which permits us to give your child the individual attention that he or she deserves. Attire: Proper dance attire is required for all classes. Leotards, tights, skirts or jazz pants are required for all classes. (No pajama pants!) Girls must have pink ballet slippers/jazz shoes and/or black tap shoes. Boys may wear t-shirts and sweatpants or shorts, with black ballet slippers/jazz shoes and/or black tap shoes. Dance Company has a very strict dress code that must be followed at all times! Parking: There are times during the day that the parking lot is busy. We ask that you bring only one vehicle per family and car pool when possible. You may need to wait until the previous class is out during the winter season. When parking to the right of the building, please do not block the tow trucks from Goodyear Tire. Our landlord and Goodyear Tire are working with us during our busiest times to provide us with extra space. We ask for your patience in this matter.
