A few good questions
What families ask.
Can my Salem Hills dancer prepare for drill tryouts here?
Yes — Advanced levels plus private lessons with Oakley, who danced on that company.
Is there a Salem carpool?
Salem families organize carpools themselves through the parent group; ask at your first class and we will connect you.
