Cora Dance Alleghany

Exceptional Dance Education, Accessible to Everyone

Cora Dance Alleghany (CDA) brings exceptional, professionally led dance education to the stage of Clifton Forge’s beautiful Historic Masonic Theatre (HMT), with Modern-based classes for youth ages 5+ and adults—from beginners to professional-level dancers. Classes build strong technical foundations while developing improvisation, dance-making, and performance skills through a scaffolded track designed to support both serious study and recreational enjoyment.

For dedicated, advanced teen dancers, CDA CYC/Cora Youth Company offers audition-based performance opportunities. And through Cora Community Company, community members ages 11+ can participate in collaborative performance-making regardless of age or experience—creating opportunities for everyone to move, make, and perform together.

ACCESS FOR EVERYONE: All CDA classes are PAY-WHAT-YOU-CAN, ensuring that financial circumstances never stand between a student and the opportunity to dance.
