At BLDC, we’re committed to more than just dance steps.
Our youngest dancers build coordination, confidence, and creativity in a joyful, age-appropriate setting. Classes reinforce structure and routine in a fun and supportive environment, helping students learn important skills like taking turns, listening, and following directions.
Through movement and music, dancers also develop early learning skills—like counting and pattern recognition—while exploring their imagination and expressing themselves. Our creative exercises provide a positive outlet for energy and help students grow both on and off the dance floor.


Our Building Blocks program has been a beloved part of BLDC for 25 years!
These classes are the perfect introduction to dance, providing young dancers with a strong foundation as they grow. Taught by experienced, adult instructors, the Building Blocks program is divided into three levels to ensure students are placed in the class best suited for their age and development.

Students in our standard 45-minute Building Blocks classes will perform a tap dance in the end-of-year recital. For dancers looking for an expanded experience, our Building Blocks C classes are also available in an extended format. This hour and 15-minute class gives dancers the opportunity to perform both a tap and a ballet dance in the recital.

We also offer age-appropriate classes in Ballet, Hip-Hop, and Pom, giving every child the chance to explore different styles and discover the joy of dance. 


If you have any questions or would like to speak with us about class options, please reach out. We’re always happy to help!
