Honing your acting and improv skills is an excellent way to work through stage fright, improve public speaking skills, create interesting characters, learn to "think outside the box", and trust your gut instincts. Students who study acting and improvisation have noticeable improvements in their overall onstage abilities.
We have made it our mission in these difficult times to provide a creative outlet and physical activity in a convenient and safe way. We offer classes via zoom so that students can still get the exercise and socialization that they crave from the comfort of their home. We are still following the CDC guide lines and wearing masks in class as well as social distancing.
Although the style of dancewear varies according to genre, it is important that clothing is made with lightweight, breathable, and stretchy fabrics which provide dancers with comfort and freedom of movement. Proper dancewear is also an important part of discipline in the study of dance. Proper dance attire for ballet includes a leotard, wrap-around ballet skirt or spandex/lycra shorts, tights, and split-sole ballet slippers.
Melody Lane Theatre Department is a musical theatre program at Melody Lane Performing Arts Center. Since 2017, we have produced over a dozen youth musicals, including three pilot productions for Disney. Through audition, education, and performance opportunities, students gain acting, singing, dancing, and ensemble skills as well as create art.

We had tried other dance studios and theatre groups in the past, but when we came to Melody Lane Performing Arts Center we found a home. From Dana and Sami’s instruction, to Nanci’s organization and nurturing, and all of the amazing families, I feel so blessed to have a place where my child is welcomed and embraced for who they are. I highly recommend MLPAC!

Melody Lane Performing Arts Center does it again! Their shows never disappoint. Professional directing, outstanding choreography, fabulous tech crew... and incredibly talented actors/vocalists. Even if he’s not acting, Landon has such a love for Dana Angeloro Alvarez and her team that he plans to help out behind the scenes. We look forward to seeing their shows for many years to come.

I take Jara's fitness classes and Ginger's Adult Tap! Both teachers are the best I've ever had! The fitness classes are fun and extremely fulfilling. Each class is better than the last. As for Adult Tap, I have zero dance experience and wanted to try something new. It's been a great experience and Ginger has been very patient and encouraging with me, which I'd say is perfect for someone with little or no experience. She also knows how to keep the other adults that do have more experience equally engaged and challenged!
This studio has the most incredible teachers and treats everyone like family
