Short Dance Studios is a family-owned performing-arts dance studio in New Richmond (est. 1965) whose summer offerings are short one-day Mini Dance Camps for ages 4–10 and multi-week summer classes. The 90-minute mini camps (10:00am–11:30am) include learning a new dance, a craft, and games; summer classes range from a ballet intensive to family creative-movement sessions. These are class-length programs rather than a full-day camp.

Powered by GoogleWe wholeheartedly recommend Short Dance Studios! Our family has been part of the SDS community for over 10 years, and with two daughters dancing there, we've seen firsthand the incredible impact it has had on them. The lessons they’re learning go far beyond dance technique—at SDS, they’re also gaining valuable life skills such as teamwork, compassion, empathy, hard work, responsibility, and accountability. The students learn to put in the effort and appreciate the rewards of dedication. Whether they’re in recital-only classes or at the competition level, the program offerings are outstanding. Our girls have not only developed a deeper love for dance and enhanced their skills, but they’ve also grown as individuals. We can’t recommend Short Dance Studios highly enough!
Short Dance isn't just a dance studio. It's our family's second home. Our children are building so much strength, ability, and confidence through the dance education that they receive at Short. No other local studio offers the full, balanced, and well rounded dance experience that the kids receive here and we are so very happy to be a part of Short Dance studios!! Not only is Short Dance great for young dancers, but our oldest who had never danced until she was upper high school is also able to take classes. And they are very 'boy dancer' friendly, having male dance instructors as well as older boy dancers for the younger ones to look up to. All in all, you should definitely try a class at Short Dance Studios! Great for littles, bigs, girls, and boys!!
My daughter has been attending Short Dance Studios since she was just 3 years old, and now, 10 years later, she is still as passionate about dance as she was on day one. Being a part of the competition line has been an incredible experience for her. The friendships and connections she has made with her fellow dancers and the amazing dance teachers have been invaluable. The instructors at Short Dance Studios not only teach dance but also instill important life lessons. They emphasize the values of hard work, dedication, personal growth, and humility. I have seen my daughter grow not just as a dancer, but as a person, thanks to the supportive and nurturing environment at the studio. I highly recommend Short Dance Studios to anyone looking for a place where their child can thrive both in dance and in life.
Short Dance Studios is amazing! My daughter has danced with their studio for over 10 years and the skills she has learned not only as a dancer but as a person is phenomenal. The teachers love what they do and they do it amazingly. They have become an extension of our family and I would recommend this studio to anyone who is looking for a place for their child to dance, a place where they are welcomed every day they walk in the doors! Great job SDS!!
Short Dance Studios provides the best of both worlds! A high level of education and super fun and engaging for kids. Every time I watch these dancers I’m impressed. Not only are they amazing dancers, but they have amazing work ethic. I’m beyond impressed all the way from their little kid rec program to their senior competition dancers. I would definitely recommend parents send their kids here. It’s a great value for the education quality.
