About this studio
New Heights Dance Academy sits in Tampa Heights and teaches dance to students from age two through adulthood. The studio's founder and lead instructor is Cassie, who describes the mission as providing "a safe, creative and inclusive space to inspire the community" with professional and individualized instruction across all ages and levels.
The studio runs three main class formats. Fall/Spring classes (August–May) use a progressive curriculum and include a year-end performance called the New Heights Dance Festival (held May 8 or 15). Short courses run 4–8 weeks and include a "Basics" series designed for absolute beginners who have never danced. Summer classes are 4-week sessions in June or July, available at various weekly hour commitments. Pop-up classes are one-off workshops and special events—recent offerings have included music video choreography, Halloween parties, improvisation labs, and country line dancing. The studio also hosts the ASCEND Adult Dance Convention.
Classes span Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Acrobatics, Hip Hop, Lyrical/Contemporary, Contemporary (adults), and fitness-based options including Dance Conditioning and Dance Fusion Fitness. Younger children start with Plié & Play (ages 2–3, adult-assisted) and Ballet/Tap Combo (ages 3–6). The studio emphasizes age-appropriate music, choreography, and costumes, and keeps class sizes small to allow individualized attention.
The studio has two large open studios plus a lobby and covered patio, totalling over 2,000 square feet. Beyond regular classes, New Heights offers studio rentals for rehearsals and special events, private lessons starting at $45 per half hour, and birthday party packages. Cassie and her team are noted in testimonials for warmth, engagement, and attentiveness to student progress and wellbeing.
