The Dance Corner (located next to McCaffrey’s in the Southfield Shopping Center in West Windsor) believes that exceptional dance instruction should emphasize more than dance. From beginners to pre-professional dancers, we offer a variety of classes for all ages from age 18 months to senior adults, The Dance Corner encourages our students to explore new styles, challenge their abilities, grow in technique, and build confidence. We offer classes in multiple styles for both competition and recreational dancers..
At The Dance Corner, we believe in nurturing well-rounded performers. That’s why we’ve expanded our curriculum to include vocal training as well as acting and other performance workshops, offering students a comprehensive foundation in the performing arts.
We are proud to have a dedicated team of experienced instructors, many of whom have been with us for years. Some have even begun their dance journey right here in our studio! Many of our staff hold degrees in dance, performing arts, and education, bringing both academic knowledge and real-world experience to the classroom. Our instructors have performed professionally and at the collegiate level with dance teams, dance companies, and in theatrical productions. Beyond technical training, our teachers are committed to nurturing the whole student, helping them grow not only as performers but as confident, respectful, and well-rounded individuals.
The Dance Corner offers year-round classes with a flexible and convenient schedule to suit busy families. All students have the opportunity to showcase their progress and talent in our annual June recital, a highlight of the season! For dancers eager to build confidence and gain performance experience through competition, we offer our audition-only Elite Team, which competes at both regional and national levels. Auditions are held each spring for the upcoming dance season. Students seeking more than the traditional recital experience can also explore our partnership with the West Windsor-Plainsboro Dance Company, proudly based at The Dance Corner. Each December, the company presents a production of The Nutcracker Suite, providing dancers with a magical and memorable stage experience.
Since 2001, The Dance Corner has been a home to students from local and neighboring school districts including West Windsor, Plainsboro, East Windsor, Cranbury, Princeton, Robbinsville, South Brunswick, Monroe, Allentown, Montgomery, Lawrenceville, Ewing, and Hamilton. Our dance family extends far beyond the bounds of the local community, connecting our students in a special way.
The Dance Corner is home to three spacious, state-of-the-art studios designed to support high-quality dance instruction and training. We feature two adjacent 2,000-square-foot dance studios, along with a separate 1,600-square-foot dance studio located in our newest space. We also have a 150-square-foot music room for vocal instruction and private lessons. All dance studios are equipped with professional sprung floors to reduce impact and prevent injury, along with state-of-the-art sound systems and floor-to-ceiling mirrors that help dancers integrate instructor feedback while observing their alignment and positioning in the group during class.
Our welcoming waiting area offers free Wi-Fi, providing a convenient space for older students to complete homework between classes and for parents to stay connected. To keep our community informed, we maintain dedicated announcement boards outside each studio with the latest news on upcoming events, auditions, studio updates, and local happenings.
The Dance Corner is conveniently situated in the Southfield Shopping Center, offering easy access to a variety of dining and retail options. Dancers can grab a quick snack or drink between classes, while parents enjoy the convenience of running errands, relaxing with a cup of coffee, or picking up groceries, all just steps away.
