Creation Station Dance:
Creation Station Dance, located at City Treehouse, in Chelsea, New York City, is a wildly creative dance school concept which provides movement based programs for children starting at 18 months of age. All of the classes at Creation Station reflect a commitment to promoting high self esteem. They entertain as well as educate and most of all, allow every child to be just that - a child! Our philosophy lies in the belief that by combining a nurturing, non-competitive environment and encouraging kids to develop their own personal, artistic, and educational strengths, allows them to tap into their imaginations in a way that is vastly different from any other traditional dance school.

Our Classes:
We have realistic and age-appropriate expectations for children. Our classes begin with a consistent structure. From there we add a developmental theme, physical focal elements (designed to strengthen coordination, build body awareness or flexibility, and in the case of ballet classes, introduce technical elements for practice), and finally we add a magical make-believe component to tie everything together.

Parent Testimonal:
"Our entire family loves the Creation Station, it teaches focus & discipline and that's just for the parents to get them to class on time. Seriously, both our daughters are learning Flexibility, Balance & Grace. Isn't that what we are all trying to do, be flexible enough to balance life gracefully"
