Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Chicago's newest, state-of-the-art training studio, Dance On Broadway, has opened in Lakeview East on the popular stretch of Broadway at 3126 N. Broadway St. Inspired by Studio Owner Cheryl Cutinho's daughter's love for dance, Dance On Broadway's mission is to provide the highest quality dance training for both children and adults in an environment that promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion. Dance On Broadway offers a variety of classes from Ballet, Contemporary, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Latin, Modern, Pointe, and Tap for students of all levels and ages.

There are beginning (no prior dance experience is necessary), intermediate, and advanced Adult Drop-In class options.
The Lovebugs program at Dance On Broadway provides the opportunity for children eighteen months to six years of age to begin the exploration of moving to music and the joy of dance with a parent or caregiver in a warm and friendly environment with play and instruction. The Pre-Academy dance program provides students ages seven to fifteen with a wide variety of styles in a relaxed class setting. Options include Ballet, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Jazz, Modern and Tap. The Pre-Academy classes focus on teaching students to explore their self expression through movement. The Academy program is for the passionate dance student who wants to study multiple dance genres with the goal of performing at dance competitions.
