Discovery Day at Pinnacle Performing Arts: What to Expect

December 14, 20253 min read

Choosing the right dance or aerial class for your child can feel overwhelming — especially if they’re new, nervous, or unsure what style they’ll enjoy most. That’s exactly why we host Discovery Days at Pinnacle Performing Arts.

Our Discovery Day is designed to give families a relaxed, welcoming way to experience our studio, meet our teachers, and try classes before committing.

What is a Discovery Day?

A Discovery Day is a short, structured open day where students can participate in mini taster sessions across our programs. Rather than watching from the sidelines, children get to move, explore, and try dance and aerial in a supportive environment.

It’s not about perfection or performance — it’s about confidence, curiosity, and finding the right fit.

What happens on the day?

During our Discovery Day, students rotate through age-appropriate taster sessions led by our qualified teaching team. Classes are kept short and fun, allowing children to experience the style without feeling overwhelmed.

Families can expect:

  • Short dance and aerial taster sessions

  • A welcoming, beginner-friendly environment

  • Opportunities to ask questions and chat with our team

  • Prize giveaways and special Open Day offers

For older students, Discovery Day can also include competition team try-outs, giving dancers a chance to explore performance pathways in a supportive setting.

Who is Discovery Day for?

Discovery Day is perfect for:

  • Children who are new to dance or aerial

  • Students wanting to try a new style

  • Families considering Pinnacle for the first time

  • Dancers interested in competition teams

  • Parents who want to see how classes run before enrolling

No previous experience is required, and all abilities are welcome.

Why we run Discovery Days

At Pinnacle Performing Arts, we believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and confident. Discovery Day allows students to:

  • Try classes without pressure

  • Build confidence in a new environment

  • Meet teachers and make new friends

  • Discover what style they enjoy most

For parents, it provides clarity — you can see how classes are structured, how teachers interact with students, and whether Pinnacle feels like the right fit for your family.
