Education & Classes in Las Vegas

Delgado Dance Studios is equipped to teach any level of dancer—in fact, they've trained some of the most renowned ballroom dancers in the country. According to an article on BestOfVegas.com and a March 2009 story written by Robin Leach for Las Vegas Weekly, Delgado Dance Studios has hosted rehearsals for several of the Dancing with the Stars contestants and has trained dancing pro Cheryl Burke. The studio's instructors teach both kids and adults how to gracefully navigate styles such as ballroom, ballet, tap, and jazz.

Studio One's Summerlin and Southwest establishments house an armada of instructors boasting experience ranging from Olympic opening ceremony performances, star spots in Broadway productions, and choreography positions with entertainment companies. Within the combined 15,000 square feet of studio space, left-footed frolickers are transformed into smooth-stepping dancers with a variety of dance disciplines. From the grace of traditional ballet sessions to hip-hop classes inspired by popular street dances, the movement mavens instill their mastery onto dancers of all ages and levels, regardless of how many legs or fins they have. The Summerlin location boasts five studio rooms equipped with viewing windows and a waiting room with a flat-screen TV that broadcasts video from each dance room, so guardians can watch their pupil evolve into a dancer and forgo walking forever.

With resumés that list extensive travels from venue to venue, the instructors at The Pointe Dance Center embody Shakespeare's famous sentiment, "All the world's a stage." Owner Donna Frias has appeared on television and in famous venues—Madison Square Garden and the Civic Light Opera among them—as a member of Bella Lewitzky's dance company. Break-dance teacher Ricardo Barraza Jr. once entertained American troops in Qatar in addition to touring internationally, and Kelly Inskip has lent her moves to celebrities such as Mariah Carey and Justin Timberlake.

At their Las Vegas studio, these professionals combine their experiences to spark a passion for dance in students of all age groups. They concentrate on the dual development of technique and confidence, leading classes in ballet, tap, hip-hop, musical theater, and acrobatic disciplines including gymnastics and cheer. They acclimate tiny legs to new rhythms with sessions for toddlers, and they also host Stretch, Turn & Leap seminars that help with general poise. By relying on positive reinforcement rather than giant, screaming metronomes for motivation, they encourage pupils to view choreography as a flexible medium for self-expression.

The experienced instructors at Art Starts Here foster artistic abilities in a gamut of mediums, leading classes that teach new techniques and instill confidence in Picassos of all ages. Supervised kids' classes facilitate budding creative expression and help keep paint blobs out of mouths or Roth IRAs and on paper where they belong. Mommy & Me classes enhance bonds between art, tots, and parents, and a preschool art class helps kids grasp the basics of sculpture, drawing, or painting.

Adult and teen classes are more freeform than the classes for younger humans. Nascent Monets work at their own pace to master a variety of techniques, from acrylics to sculpture, drawing, oil painting, and professional-grade forgery. Art gurus proffer individual assistance and advice throughout each class, nudging technical ability higher, teaching new skills, and sparking inspiration in fertile minds. Sessions help students see unintended strokes not as mistakes, but as creative detours that lead to new avenues of thought or abstract impressionistic landscapes of Reno.

A subsidiary of New Horizons Computer Learning Center, New Horizons of Las Vegas and its instructors maintain the same student-first mentality in their learning approach that has kept their classes in demand for more than 30 years. Courses aim to help students to function smoothly in word processing, accounting, presentation, and other software, including the Microsoft Office suite. Most classes are available both online and in the classroom, giving students the choice to learn essentials remotely. The Las Vegas branch also routinely hosts seminars that expound on developing tips and tricks, upcoming technologies, and niche software such as Adobe Photoshop.
