Dance
The Lake Forest Dance Academy is proud to celebrate 43 years of providing quality dance programs for all ages! We
offer a variety of fall classes including Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Modern, Hip Hop, and Irish. We offer challenging programs
designed for the serious dance student. We also provide classes for children, teens, and adults who simply love to
dance or just want to experience the rewards of this artistic discipline.
Special Events
COMPANY BENEFIT "PASSION TO DANCE" PERFORMANCE PRESCHOOL RECITAL "CANDY LAND"
LFDA’s performance companies - Prelude Dance Theater, Euphony
Tap Ensemble, and Hip Hop Evolution - take the stage in our annual
benefit concert, Passion to Dance! As the years have passed, Passion
to Dance has evolved into a don’t-miss event that pairs an evening
of unforgettable dance with a post show reception. A silent auction,
extravagant raffle prizes, a spread of hors d’ouerves and desserts,
beautiful choreography, and a chance to see LFDA dancers are just a few
of the reasons to attend. Our youngest dancers, from as little as two years to six, will sweeten the
stage as they present a year’s worth of dancing, learning, and fun. The
show will include the styles of creative dance, ballet, tap, and hip hop,
and is sure to be a real treat!
