Who we are
Anchorage Music & Dance Center is celebrating 30 years of private & group music instruction and 15 years of dance!
Studies continue to show that arts training improves attention and cognition, and we believe young children can greatly benefit by participating in an arts program early in their lives! Our Preschool Morning Program introduceschildren to the arts in a fun, safe & stimulating environment. Classes are held in our music and dance studios. This program includes music, dance,reading, acting,and arts & crafts. Classes are designed for 3-4 years & 4-5 years old.
This30 minute segment is a primer to our preschool music program, Music FunTime. Little ones will learn how to count beats to music, identify instruments and be introduced to music notes. Students will also play rhythm instruments while singing songs.
An introduction to dance and creative movement will be included for 45 minutes each day. Children will have fun moving to music, following directions and working together with others.
Acting and pantomime are a great way to teach children about emotions and ways to express feelings. Students will participate in play acting based on age appropriate stories read aloud in a group.
Craft projects will be chosen to compliment the stories told during reading time and reflect upcoming holidays and seasons. Crafts will include painting, drawing, and other mixed media projects.
**Students actively enrolled in our Preschool Morning Program can enroll in 1 dance class on Anchorage Music & Dance Center’s regular schedule for half price.**

We are a unique school offering quality private & group music and dance classes at one convenient location. Multiple students from the same family can take private or group music lessons and dance classes on the same day. That means parents only have to drive to one location for everyone's lessons & classes. What a time saver for the entire family!
We work with most all homeschool & charter schools in the State of Alaska. We are a direct bill vendor which means we invoice the school, so there is no "out-of-pocket" expense for the family!
Our network of schools include: Family Partnership; Frontier Charter School; PAIDEIA; IDEA; Mat-Su Central; Twindly Bridge; Denali Peak, PACE, CyberLynx & Raven.
