Hollywood Dance

Hollywood Dance is a small, non-competitive, family-oriented studio that has been a fixture of the Hollywood neighborhood in NE Portland, Oregon for over 30 years. It teaches ages 3 and up, beginning with the Small Steps pre-ballet and tap combination program for 3 to 6 year olds and continuing into classical ballet and pointe, jazz, contemporary and hip hop. Contemporary requires prior and concurrent ballet or jazz enrollment. The studio states that it deliberately stays small in order to give personalised attention, and that classes, curriculum, performances and costumes are family-friendly and age-appropriate. It serves recreational dancers as well as students seeking pre-professional training, and says its staff have worked with children, teens and adults. Enrollment for the 2026-27 season opened in late July and is handled entirely through a Jackrabbit parent portal on a first-come, first-served basis.
