About this studio
Danceworks Dance Studio is in New Castle, Delaware, serving dancers from 18 months through adulthood. The studio emphasises technical proficiency and artistic expression, built around the philosophy that excellent technique prevents injury and long-term body issues. Under the direction of Ms. Amanda Pollard, the studio runs a September to June dance season with two shows per year, offering classes in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Lyrical, Musical Theatre, Acrobatics and Hip-hop. Younger dancers aged 4–9 can take combo classes to explore different styles and find their best fit.
The teaching staff includes Ms. Amanda (Director, teaching Creative Dance, Tiny Tumble, Level II, Level III, and Stretch & Flex), Ms. DaVonna (Lyrical I–III, Hip-hop I–III, and Stretch & Flex), Ms. Aynia (Creative Dance, Tiny Tumble, and Dance Basics), and Ms. Ta'Janay (Level I and Technique). All instructors are described as nurturing teachers with a passion for dance education and performance.
Danceworks serves both recreational and pre-professional students. Beyond regular classes, the studio runs a competitive team for dancers aged 4–18 and offers summer sessions each summer to work on technique. Summer 2026 includes an 8-week camp for ages 5–12 running from 15 June, with daily rates of $85 per day (or $50 for half-day, 8:30am–3:30pm) and weekly rates of $140. Before-care starts at 7:00am for $25; after-care until 5:00pm costs $45 per day or $50 per week. A 5-week summer evening session runs 13 July–13 August, with a promotion of $25 per class for new students. Campers must bring their own lunch and snacks.
The studio also hosts birthday parties with three themed packages: Tiny Tumblers Party (ages 2–8), Princess Party (ages 3–8), and Diva Party (ages 6–10). Each party includes a 30–45 minute class of your choice and a coupon for one free dance class. Packages range from $150 (30–45 min class plus 2-hour rental) to $300 (class, 2-hour rental, set-up/clean-up, pizza and juice). A 50% deposit is required at booking; the balance is due on the day of the party.
Students must be enrolled in a Ballet class to take Lyrical, Jazz, Modern or Pointe classes. The studio operates Monday to Thursday 5:00–8:00pm and Saturday 11:00am–2:30pm, closed Friday and Sunday. Fall registration opens 1 August, and the studio holds a Fall Open House on Saturday, 22 August, 12:00–3:00pm. A free trial class is available; interested parents can request one online or by email.
