Come Study at COASTAL DANCE CENTRE

Studying at Coastal Dance Centre is more than just an activity. It is a dance experience
unlike any other you will find in the Grand Strand area. Regardless of where you are in
training, we will take you to new levels of excellence!

Under the artistic leadership of Liza Mata, Coastal Dance Centre, the official school of
Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre (CDC's performing company), has experienced tremendous
artistic growth and success. The outstanding teaching staff uses the Royal Academy of
Dance syllabus, an internationally recognized training method combined with open ballet
technique classes.

Other dance styles like jazz, and tap are also offered. Master classes with classical
ballet, contemporary, modern dance and jazz guest teachers further broaden the dance
horizons of CDC students.

Our goal is to cultivate the education and appreciation of the classical dance both for the
beginning to the pre-professional student. In a healthy and caring environment, students
share the joy of learning the art of dance and grow in confidence, concentration,
memorization, coordination, self-motivation and artistic appreciation of dance.

By studying at Coastal Dance Centre, you will benefit from individualized attention and
professional insight of our experienced faculty. Participation in the Summer term serves
as an audition for parts in the Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre performances which includes
"The Nutcracker" in December and the Spring Performance.
