Welcome to Greater York Center for Dance Education...Greater York Dance for short. Our mission is to excite the heart, mind, soul and spirit through dance. By meeting the challenges of dance study, it is our hope that each student finds themselves better prepared for life's endeavors. It is the intent of Greater York Dance to provide an enriching dance experience to the broadest number of people through performances and classes in a happy, gentle and safe environment that inspires excellence.
Students are encouraged through classes, workshops, performances and individual attention to follow their aspirations. All students use the professional atmosphere in which to grow and receive the opportunity to perform as an extension of class studies and to contribute culturally to the community.
