About our studio


Soundance Children's Ballet has been a part of the Williamsburg/ Greenpoint Community for over 20 years.  For two decades we were located in an artist loft building on N 7th St. between Havemeyer and Meeker.


In December 2022, we lost our long time studio space but are so grateful to continue offering classes for our dancers.


Beginning in September 2023,  all classes will take place at the Dance Space NY Studio in the Pencil Factory Building in Greenpoint. 


The studio is full of natural light, with full mirrors and wood floors, and freestanding ballet barres.
