UPDATE 3/5/2018 – As of today we are putting a hold on future birthday parties. We hope to offer them again soon. Sorry for the inconvenience

Dance Birthday Party at PCPA!

Principal Creative and Performing Arts offers private birthday parties for school age children.

Music choices, party themes, class style, and even the teacher can be selected by your dancer!  Below you will find an outline of dance party basics.
