NLSD has been educating children in the art of dance for over 50 years.  Noreen and her daughter Colleen have introduced thousands of children to the world of dance.  Their staff is small and friendly— teachers are trained by Noreen and are required to attend seminars and workshops to learn the newest methods of teaching.  

Noreen is a member of Cecchetti Council of America, an organization dedicated to maintaining the standards and techniques of ballet training.  It is a graded system whereby  students progress from one level to the next through examination.

A variety of classes is offered beginning at age 2.  Class size is limited.  The Terrific 2s program is an intro to dance with basic rhythms, movement and song.  Students learn to follow instruction while interacting in a social situation with their peers.  Preschool combo classes include ballet, tap, tumbling and focus on strength, coordination, rhythm, control and self- esteem.  Ballet & tap combo classes are offered to school age children for versatility.  At this level, they learn terminology and a good basic foundation to lay the groundwork for a more mature interest in dance.

Noreen and Colleen are careful to select music, choreography and costuming that is age appropriate.  They are proud to say they are members of Dance Masters of America — a prestigious organization that certifies teachers by exam to teach and provides continuing education programs.

They are located at 750 Beta Drive in Mayfield Village.  For more information call 440-449-0240, visit them on Facebook, Instagram or online at www.noreendancer.com.
