THE Six COMPOUND

Discover

At THE SIX COMPOUND, we fundamentally believe that young people deserve an ecosystem that will allow them to grow and explore their full potential as authentic artists. We have worked tirelessly to design a space where every child can fully be themselves. We do not believe in the "one size fits all" philosophy. Instead, we aim to facilitate a hands-on approach to each individual student within our space, focusing on both dance and art.

Our instructors and choreographers are simply the best in the industry. Under the leadership of our renowned Directors, Latrina Bolger-Washington and Tyrell Washington, we aim to transform the world of this new generation of artists, performers, and entertainers. Whether classical or commercial, we aim to curate your child’s dance training and arts education alongside them. With them. For them. We hope to fill our compound with young people who believe in the importance of character. Something none of us are born with but rather something we all have to work on everyday.
