My DS has loved to dance since he was young and we found the best little breakdancing studio about 10 min away, with a very inclusive community. He did it for a few years and had a great time.
I have been looking for a breakdance studio for boys only or mainly boys in Montgomery county and I have not found any.
Xtreme Acro used to offer breakdancing a couple of years ago. I don’t know if they still do. I think a group rented the studio.

My just turned 7 year old daughter loves everything, and I am not sure what she really wants and I think her body coordination is not that good. She is not Irish or white, and I am even sure if she is a good fit for Irish dance. She is skinny and tall. Any ideas?
Ballet, hip hop, Irish dance, cheer & poms, acrob (the one with ribbon).
Ballet has the most toxic culture. Hip hop is all walks of life and easier to make friends, nicer kids IME.

Are you saying the only activities we should do is to please a man????

You can dance all your life. I just started taking tap ( as an adult) and I love it. Who says you have to dance just to be with a male partner?

Just a quick note, cheer and poms are two different sports. My observation about acrobatics is that almost all of the kids who get good at it started young.

My DD kid different classes for a few years before settling into her favorite.
Just let her do what she enjoys and don't put too much money or energy into it. Your daughter could love it now and hate it in a few years, so just go with whatever is easiest for now, kids change a lot in a few years.
