The Little Stars and Inspire Dance Academies have three dance studios at the Community Recreation Center (CRC ) and one at Meineke Recreation Center (MRC). All studios feature sprung wood floors, mirrors and ballet barres. The dance academies provide skill-building techniques through various dance forms. Equal attention is given to each student to provide a pleasant atmosphere essential to learning.

The goal is to provide every student with a solid dance foundation while leaving room for individual creativity and FUN!

Spring Valley POP-UP Programs

Many of the natural and agricultural highlights at Spring Valley are weather-dependent and difficult to schedule in advance. Be on the lookout for notices about upcoming Pop-Up programs! These could include the arrival of migrating monarchs or birds, the ripening of wild berries, the peak of autumn colors and working crop fields with the horses. The list is endless! If you’d like to receive email notifications about these Pop-Up events and special programs, please send an email request to springvalley@parkfun.com.
