More About Hazel's Dance Academy
Our History
Two sisters born in Houston and raised in New Orleans with a passion for Dance and Children. As preschool teachers for almost two decades and currently working in the school system, we are no strangers to the needs of children.
The Arts have always had a special place in our hearts!
We use dance as an outlet to express ourselves and show off our creativity.
Our goal is to give each child this opportunity and have a ball doing it!
We specialize in Tap, Jazz, Ballet, and Pointe but include Modern, Hip-Hop, Creative Movement, Contemporary, and some Ballroom in our curriculum to expose our students to the diversity available to them.
With 30+ years of dancing and 20+ years of teaching experience, our mission is to challenge and encourage your child(ren) to explore their own uniqueness and unlock the Art of Dance!

Classes We Offer
Level 1-2
Saturdays
Ages 2-5

Students will concentrate on movements, expression, and musical understanding. They will build strength, coordination, and technique while being introduced to advanced steps and combinations. Close attention is paid to the proper extension of the legs and shape of the feet, developing movement sequences, and balance. Students will see an increase in the difficulty of barre and center work. Students begin to focus on repetition and retention.
Level 3-4
Saturdays

This class is designed for dancers who want to take their dance training to a higher level. We learn how to advance our turning, kicking, and leaping ability while also working on flexibility and strength. We also take a look at overall stage presence and address moving into the professional sector.
