Dance Makers is a children's and teen dance studio at 9901 Business Parkway, Suite L, Lanham, Maryland. It offers a broad range of classes and describes its work as going beyond movement and technique to build friendships and self-confidence in an encouraging, youth-focused community that supports children on and off the stage. Classes include Totz Town and KinderDanz for ages 3 to 5, and ballet, jazz, lyrical/contemporary and tap for ages 6 to 18, with hip hop open to all ages and pointe by invitation only. Its competitive troupe, the Slay Squad, is award-winning and has appeared on Fox 5's Zip Trip and Good Day DC and performed with the Universal Soul Circus; it typically enters five regional competitions and one national competition a year, and dancers need at least two years of experience to audition. Free trial classes are advertised.
