The Movement Arts Center is a place for people of all ages and abilities to explore and develop through dance and other forms of movement. Our focus is on providing an age-appropriate ballet curriculum for kids six to 18, with an ultimate goal of preparing a group of advanced-level dancers, age 14 to 18, for acceptance to nationally recognized programs. We also offer a variety of dance classes and other events for kids and adults, including yoga, jazz dance, therapeutic movement and summer camps. See Our Philosophy to learn more. 

So whether you are looking for ballet by Avila Beach, Pismo Beach dance classes, or any form of dance near Shell Beach, Morro Bay, Atascadero, Paso Robles, Grover Beach, Arroyo Grande or anywhere along our Central Coast, our high caliber dance programs are just a short drive away!
