About
Staten Island Dance and Arts Center (‘SIDAC’)
Staten Island Dance and Arts Center was established in 1988, in the town of Annadale. Dance Directors
Rory Labetti and Patti Spratt built the foundation of the school’s dynamic passion and love for dance.
This strong foundation is the cornerstone of the SIDAC family. It is our goal to ensure that each student
is having fun, learning dance technique, and working in cooperation with other classmates. We take
great pride in the lifelong friendships and strong bonds that have been built in our family, and we
look forward to new friendships and learning experiences. As we begin our 25th dance season, we are
excited for a new year of learning, creativity and cooperation.
SIDAC truly offers something for everyone
We offer classes for all levels of dance in Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Lyrical Ballet, Hip-Hop, as well, as special
feature classes, such as Broadway Jazz, the Wow Factor (combination of break dancing & hip-hop),
Happy Feet classes for children with special needs, and Zumba classes. Our classes are offered for
ages 2 through adult, for boys and girls. Monthly tuition rates are very affordable and we offer
sibling discounts.
We have performed in a variety of dance competitions including Showstopper National Talent Dance
Competition, United States Tournament of Dance, Star Systems and Dance Arts Plus.
The 2013 - 2014 school dance year began on September 10th. We have our year end recital
performance in June at Staten Island Academy.
Lastly, we pride ourselves in giving back to the community in a multitude of ways including donating
to local Toys for Tots programs. This year we will be running a canned food collection to donate to our
local Staten Island food banks, and contributing to the Pajama Program, donating PJs and books to
foster children.
