About the Hopkins Dance Company

Located in the heart of downtown Hopkins, HDC is a fully diversified, classically inspired dance studio with a 35-year history of excellence in training and performance opportunities for youth. We emphasize a strong foundation in dance technique for dancers at all levels. We are home to the Hopkins Youth Ballet, which is funded by the nonprofit Leslie Daly Memorial Fund. Whether your goal is to enjoy a fun extracurricular activity, or to someday perform at the college or professional level, HDC is right for you. Our instructors are current and former professional dancers, with a wide range of expertise.

Pointe Yourself in a New Direction

There is more to dance than competitions and awards. Dance is an expression of oneself. It is an art that requires discipline and hard work, but most of all, passion. We value a safe and supportive environment for our dancers to learn and grow. Our small teacher-to-student ratio allows our instructors to provide excellent technical training.

 

Home is Where the Barre is

We empower our students to become well-rounded dancers, performers and people. We believe in raising emotionally, mentally, and physically healthy dancers, encouraging them to follow their dreams, as we recognize that every individual is unique. Our promise is to be inclusive, welcoming, and compassionate, this is honoring Leslie J Daly as she held HDC to the highest regard.


 

Any Body can Dance

We pride our studio for being family-oriented, accepting, trustworthy, and approachable. Whether its recreational ballet or competitive jazz, HDC has classes that will fit young dancers of any skill level, gender and size. At Hopkins Dance Company, everybody and every body has an opportunity to shine. At Hopkins Dance Company we turn passion into poise.
