Student Journey
Our mission is to provide our students with the best performing arts education and training possible. LoMastro was founded in 2007 with a goal to create a studio with a progressive curriculum taught by the best instructors, so that students could achieve excellence.
We've created the training path below to help families understand the student journey.
The training path at a glance
-
Sep-May Season dance classes progress through a 9-month curriculum & perform in our May/June Recitals.
-
The goal of Sessional classes is primarily recreation while learning new skills. Also to enhance training for students in Sep-May classes.
Our classes are designed to be progressive, building upon the skills learned in previous levels. At the beginning, placement is determined by age through level 2. From level 3 and up, progression is exclusively based on mastery of skills and technique. Our instructors are passionate about the performing arts and committed to helping each student reach their full potential. We believe in a positive and encouraging environment where students can learn and grow, both as performers and as individuals.
We are proud of our students and their accomplishments, both in and out of the studio. From performances and competitions to college programs and professional careers, we are honored to have played a part in their journey.
