Why Families Choose Weehawken
There are many places to take a class. Weehawken is a connected performing-arts program where dancers can train, create, perform, and grow alongside teachers and classmates who know them.
More Than a Recital
Weehawken students have opportunities to participate in two fully staged productions each year at the Montrose Pavilion. Our productions bring together dancers and aerialists from across the region to create a shared theatrical experience.
Performances help students develop confidence, responsibility, teamwork, resilience, stage presence, and artistry. Every enrolled class has a place in the production, while experienced students may also audition for featured roles.
