Dance for every level

About Us

Adult Dance Classes

It’s Been a While Dance Company was established in 2007 with only 6 members. Now, 15 years later we have over 30 members and over 15 performances under our belt. Our motto is if it has been a while since you last danced, (which for most of us it has) it’s time to dance again! We believe that the joy of dancing and performing should not stop just because you grow up. Women of all ages, sizes, and dance backgrounds should be allowed to continue to do what they are passionate about. Anyone can join our group, regardless of dance experience and background. The one requirement is that you love to dance!

It’s Been a While Dance company puts on an annual show every Fall. We start learning dances in January in preparation for this show, and continue learning all year long for our fall performance. The director Jackie Nuttall creates a storyline that is interwoven around the dances that we perform. We believe that dance is meant to tell a story that cannot fully be expressed through words. We tell these stories through different styles of dance, including Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Lyrical, Modern, Contemporary, Hip-Hop, African Jazz, Ballroom and Bollywood. There is something for everyone here! There is even student choreography opportunities available.
