Thank you for choosing Next Step Dance Kodiak!

We are dedicated to offering high-quality dance instruction to all ages and providing students with a safe, accepting, and motivating environment to learn and grow. We would love to have you and your dancer join our studio family, whether you are with us for a short-session class or taking classes year-round!

How Does It Work?

1. View Our Classes

Or give us a call, and we can walk you through our different classes! We offer dance classes in various styles for ages 2 through adults, including ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop, contemporary, musical theatre, acrodance, tumbling, and aerial.

2. Book Your Trial Class

The next step is to book a free trial class! After you fill out our form, we will contact you to schedule your trial classes. You can also choose to book a studio tour before class to familiarize yourself with the space and meet some of the amazing staff.

3. Take Your Trial Class

Finally, it’s time to take your trial class! Don’t worry about dress code yet. Please come dressed in clothes you can move in with long hair tied back. Feel free to come a few minutes before class to get settled in and ask any last minute questions!

What's Next?

Here's What to Expect After Your Trial Class

After your trial class, we will check in with you to see how it went. Did it go well? Great! We can go ahead and enroll your dancer for you. Are you not too sure yet? No problem! Sometimes it takes another class to be sure, or even a different style completely. We can help with that, too!

  • “Summer 2021 was the first time Savannah ever tried classes at NSDK.  She loved them so much, learned so many new things, and made so many new friends that she wanted to keep dancing every time there was a class available. NSDK is part of her life now. She even tells me that she wants to be a dance teacher when she grows up.

    – Laura C., Current Dance Parent
  • Our daughter was part of the NSDK family for 3 years and she absolutely loved it.  Being a Coast Guard family we have moved around and belong to a number of different dance studios. Next Step Dance Kodiak has been our favorite studio!!  As a parent I loved the family friendly feel of the studio and was always impressed with the teachers, they truly care for their students.  Our daughter liked the different dance styles offered and she too loved all of her teachers.  She learned and grew so much as a dancer and she had so much fun.  And the end of the year recitals were amazing!  We are truly going to miss NSDK.
