Miss Glynis School of Dance is located in the Penbrook community in Harrisburg just off Walnut Street, near the Penbrook firehouse and borough building. The studio doesn’t have a lot of storage space, so Miss Glynis has a self storage unit at Harrisburg Self Storage where she stores many things for the studio such as costumes, props and equipment. The studio is locally owned and operated by Glynis Smith, and we are proud to say the school has been our business partner for over three years.
The studio was previously known as Patsy Morris School of Dance before Miss Glynis took over. Miss Glynis carries on the traditions and love of dance with hundreds of families in our area spanning many generations. She has been teaching dance for more than 35 years and is a member of the Dance Masters of America Association. The other teachers at the studio include Miss Morgan, Miss Heather and Miss Randi, who all have been sharing their love of dance for nearly 20 years and have been dancing at the studio since they were three years of age! Every member of the teaching staff is a state certified Elementary or Secondary teacher as well as first aid and CPR trained, providing added safety benefits for you and your children before, during and after class.
The school offers combination classes that range from three years of age through adults. Class sizes range from 10-15 students per class and are organized by age, skill level and dance experience. That means you don’t have to be an expert to enjoy class here, and it also means you can still learn more if you have a lot of knowledge and experience. Students at the school can participate in tap, ballet and jazz, as well as a variety of other dance related activities.
As each dance season wraps up, all students perform in costume on the stage at the Harrisburg State Forum at their annual dance recital. This typically takes place in early June and is a great time for students to show off everything they have learned and give them the experience of performing in front of a live audience. The show has always been a big hit and it’s free to the public, so I highly recommend that you check it out.
Miss Glynis School of Dance offers classes in the evening Monday through Thursday as well as Saturday morning. Classes are reasonably priced and family discounts are available. Stop in and sign up today – you won’t be sorry! Everyone should experience the joy of dance.
