FALL 2025 LEVEL 5-6 DANCE AT WEEHAWKEN!

Schedule Release for Fall 2025!

Registration opens July 1 | Final deadline: September 14 (if space is available)

The Weehawken Dance program runs year-round, offering 28 weeks of classes divided into two semesters. Each semester concludes with a performance at the Montrose Pavilion, giving every dancer the opportunity to shine on stage. Level 5/6 classes are full-year commitments, running continuously through the school year, and tuition reflects the full 28-week season. These advanced levels are intended for dancers with prior experience—not brand-new beginners—and focus on refining technique, building discipline, and developing strong performance skills. Dancers in these levels typically perform multiple times per production—once in the winter and once in the spring—and may also audition for lead roles. Level 5/6 students rehearse on Sundays at our Montrose Field House location, where dancers from across the region come together to collaborate. These rehearsals emphasize ensemble work, leadership, and a shared commitment to the mission, vision, and values of Weehawken Dance. We aim to create a meaningful performance experience that inspires confidence, connection, and personal growth—both on and off the stage.

Weekly Class Schedule

Note: Many of our classes are intentionally structured as mixed-level (e.g., Ballet 4/5 or Ballet 5/6) to better support students at different stages of development, offer appropriate challenges, and allow for more flexible placement based on experience and instructor recommendation.

Auditions for Lead Roles

Dancers in Level 5/6 are expected to participate in auditions and rehearsals for our performances. One of the ways we keep our upper-level dancers challenged and engaged is through the process of learning and performing show choreography that matches their level of ability and growth.

While Weehawken Dance is a recreational program, our performances provide meaningful opportunities for students to shine. Dancers are cast in roles that support their individual development, allowing them to build technique, artistry, and confidence through choreography tailored to their needs.

Auditions for this semester will be held on September 7, 2025.

Click here to learn more about auditions, the process, and what rehearsals look like.

What to Expect During Show Week

Most Level 4/5 classes in Montrose will perform in Cast A, with:

Dress Rehearsal: Monday, December 8
Performances: Wednesday, December 10 & Thursday, December 11
👉 View sample Cast A info »

Most Level 5/6 classes will perform in multiple casts, typically:

Show 1 (Cast A) – Wednesday, December 10
Show 3 (Cast B) – Friday, December 12
Show 5 (Cast C) – Saturday evening, December 13

These dancers will attend multiple dress rehearsals, and Jazz 5/6 and Hip Hop 6 will also perform in Show 6 (Sunday matinee, December 14).
