Michele's Dance Academy is the foremost Dance Academy in Southern New Mexico,

where individuals of all ages and abilities receive the finest training from former professional dancers with extensive teaching experience (including Kevin Self, formerly with the prestigious ABT - American Ballet Theatre, New York City) .

We are also the home of the Las Cruces Chamber Ballet, the longest continuously running ballet company in New Mexico, now in it's 41st season!

Dance teaches children discipline, co-ordination, strength and control.   These qualities can give a child a head start, no matter where their life takes them.  We eagerly work with students to cultivate a lifelong appreciation of dance, music and the arts, while also allowing them to develop self-confidence and physical awareness.
