Delmonico Dance Inc.

DelMonico Dance is at 400 St. Croix Trail S in Lakeland, Minnesota, and has been running since 2010 under founder and owner Kim DelMonico-Jensen, who danced professionally as a Minnesota Vikings cheerleader and has choreographed for professional and college teams. The studio teaches ages 2 to 18 and splits its provision into three strands. Recreational classes are aimed at beginners wanting a light weekly commitment; those dancers appear in a December holiday showcase and a year-end recital in June with costumes and a professional stage experience, and the studio also runs eight-week spring and summer sessions and occasional pop-up camps. Company programs are audition-only and include the full DelMonico Dance Company, a Pre-Company stepping-stone level, Ballet Plus for dancers wanting extra technical ballet training, an Elite Travel Team that attends out-of-state convention competitions, and Project C, which is scheduled around local high school dance team commitments so students can do both. Private and semi-private lessons are available to the studio's own dancers and to outside students.
