Dance classes in Burlington, Washington
En Avant Academy of Dance (formerly Burlington Academy of Dance) is at 412 E Fairhaven in Burlington, Washington, in Skagit County. Its name comes from the ballet term 'en avant', to move forward, which the school takes as its aim for its dancers, working around the themes of education, community and creativity.
