“Mommy & Me”
Did you know our Mommy & Me classes won the 2022 Birmingham Parent Favorite award for best parent/child class? Offered only during our 6 week summer course, this is a great way to get started between the ages of 18 months and 3 years, and any “grown up” is welcome to join. Our instructors will incorporate props, singing, and creative movement to further develop your little one’s motor skills. Get started by viewing summer dance details below.
Combo - (Jazz & Tap)
Preschool (2.5 -5), 4-6, and 5-7 combo classes include ballet/jazz and tap. As a student gets older, and ballet is offered as its own class beginning at ages 6-8, combo becomes more strictly jazz and tap. However, if your dancer is only interested in one or the other (jazz only, for example), you can pay our 30 minute tuition rate and only participate in half the class.

Ballet & Pointe
At Miss Kelley’s, we consider ballet to be very important and highly recommend it in order to advance as a dancer. As the foundation of dance, you will see you dancer improve greatly when adding on an hour of ballet. Our ballet only classes begin at age 6. As they continue to age and refine their technique, strength, articulation, etc., it may be suggested that your dancer begin to train to go en pointe in our “pre-pointe” class.

Acro
Offered only in Trussville, our 1 hour long acro classes begin at age 2.5 and help to develop young students’ motor skills, bodily control, and balance. As they age, our certified instructor will work to safely develop foundational skills, flexibility and strength needed to refine more advanced tumbling skills and tricks. Check out our available acro classes on Mondays and Tuesdays by clicking the schedule below.
Hip Hop
A style derived from street dance, hip hop begins at age 6 at Miss Kelley’s. Our popular, age-appropriate hip hop classes are 45 minutes long and offered only on Mondays and Wednesdays in Trussville, and as hour long classes in Oneonta.

Danceline Prep
We are always so proud to see so many of our students across local middle and high school dancelines - and even going on to college dance. If interested in trying out, we offer a class focusing solely on flexibility and the specific technical skills required at tryouts. This class is offered both during the summer and regular year. During the year, the course will end after tryouts are over. Of course, as always, we highly recommend jazz and ballet in addition to this course to further develop technique.
