Classes Old

You’re never too young or too old to learn how to dance, and dance classes in every imaginable style are available throughout the Boston metropolitan area.

Boston Dance Alliance has consolidated this easy to search list to get you started. Look for full descriptions of class content and levels, teachers’ names and qualifications, locations, days and prices by clicking on the school’s website or Facebook link.

Please help us keep the BDA’s list as complete and up the date as possible by submitting class information. Listings are free! Where we have assembled information from prior postings and school publicity, entries on the BDA class list will expire on June 30, 2016.

Please note that at this time, BDA does not list gymnastics, martial arts, yoga, Pilates, or exercise classes, except those designed specifically for dancer conditioning. A listing on the Boston Dance Alliance website does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by BDA, and BDA is not responsible for any services provided by anyone listed on this website. BDA reserves the right to decline a class or school listing at its sole discretion.
