NYEMCHEK’S DANCE CENTRE
Opened in 1991 by former United States 10 Dance Champions John & Cathi Nyemchek, Nyemchek’s Dance Centre is the premier dance academy of Rockland County, located in the heart of Pearl River, New York.
Since 1991, NDC has been inspiring generations of dancers and is proud to claim over 25 years of professional dance education and involvement in our community. What began exclusively as a Ballroom Dance studio has expanded over the past quarter century to also include various forms of Performing Arts classes such as Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Pointe, Lyrical, Acro-Tumbling & Musical Theatre. We continue to add an array of dance classes to our experienced repertoire and build upon our strong reputation in Rockland & Bergen counties. In recent years, NDC has added many adult fitness classes including Yoga, Zumba & Bokwa Fitness. We have also added Movement for Joy and Wheelchair Dancing through Roll Call Wheelchair Dance.
Thousands of students have experienced NDC where we welcome all ages and levels of skill. We have students who begin as early as 2 years old and our classes are designed to accommodate any level of dancing experience through personalized attention given by our wonderful staff. Whether you have a toddler expressing interest in dance, a high school student looking to enhance their performing ability, confidence and poise, or are an adult who has always wanted to learn and dance socially – we have the space, experience and flexible class schedule to fit your needs.
“Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion.” — Martha Graham
