When dance is played in the Twin Cities
Most dance studios follow the school year (about September to June) with spring recitals; competition seasons usually run from about January to May.
Minneapolis has cold, snowy winters. Winter is peak season for indoor sports, so gyms book up early. Lock in court time before you publish the schedule, and plan for snow days that close schools and their gyms.
