Our 30th Season of Dance!
2020-2021 ENROLLMENT
BEGINS JULY 13TH!
We will re-open our studio September 8, 2020 offering both Hybrid and Virtual Only classes.
THE GENERAL
SCHOOL
For the beginning / intermediate dancer! The General School offers a wide range of classes for children who want to take dance for exercise, coordination, disciple, and fun.
PERFORMANCE
PROGRAM
The Performance Program is patterned after a young performing company. They represent the school at competitions and dance festivals, nationally and internationally.
PROFESSIONAL
DIVISION
The Professional Ballet Division prepares students for a professional future in ballet. Students must show a readiness with an open mind for the division's intense training.
Weekly classes available for ages 3 and up.
Reopening Plan & Health
and Safety Protocol
As you know, many counties in California are re-closing due to COVID-19. We hoped to fully re-open our studios on September 8. However, as this pandemic is ongoing and constantly evolving, fully re-opening seems unlikely.
Proper COVID-19 health and safety protocol will be enforced at the school to ensure the well being of our students, parents, and teachers. This includes but is not limited to:
-
Face masks are required.
-
Foot traffic in and out of the school will be monitored and directed. There will be one entrance and one exit.
-
A 6 ft. distance is required both in and out of the studios. Markers will be placed on the ground in the studios and heavy foot traffic areas to assure everyone remains 6 ft. apart at all times.
-
For students age 3-6, one parent/guardian per student is allowed to stay in the courtyard (with a face mask and staying 6 ft. apart from others). Parents of older children must drop off and pick up their children and are not permitted to observe class from the courtyard.
-
Studio windows will remain open at all times.
-
Studios will be sanitized before and after each class.
-
Temperature checks will take place at the entrance using thermo scans.
-
No bags/backpacks allowed - students will only be allowed to bring their dance shoes and a water bottle into the studio.
-
Office is restricted to 1-2 parents inside at a time.

"E Komo Mai"
A #socialdisdance Project by Te Ōrama
This special work was written and choreographed by Uncle Anthony to commemorate this time in which we have been physically separated but still joined together in spirit.
Members of our Polynesian Performance Program learned and performed this work all via social disDancing!
Thank you, Te Ōrama, for this beautiful final performance!

Westlake School for the Performing Arts is proud to offer to the children of our community an opportunity to participate in the training, the competition events, and the performing programs of WSPA. This is not just another dance school, it is an institution where talents are discovered, skills are honed, dancers are bred, and where people come together with a common goal - to be our best, to share our best, and to give our best.
