COMBO CLASS

These exciting classes are uniquely designed with a specialized curriculum that not only teaches basic dance fundamentals, terminology, and musicality, but also enhances creativity and self-expression. Using age appropriate music and themes, our tiny dancers will be inspired to begin a lifelong love of music and dance. This class incorporates ballet, tap, and jazz or gymnastics. 

 

HIP HOP

Based on street dancing and jazz, hip hop is a more freestyle form of movement. This fun, high tempo class is aimed at developing rhythm, technique, self confidence and stage presence. Students learn coordination, isolations and a variety of routines to the most popular hip hop, rap, and techno songs. 

 

GYMNASTICS

Unlike typical gymnastics, students will improve on their flexibility, balance, and strength.  This class concentrates on muscle control, discipline and concentration on each student's individual level of experience.

 

TAP

Students in tap learn technique, speed, clarity of sounds, tempo, and movement combinations such as standard time steps, shuffles, and flaps. This class offers students the opportunity to focus on their coordination and musical awareness.

 

JAZZ

This class is a technical form of dance that combines traditional jazz with the contemporary styles of today. Each class consists of warm-ups, stretches, isolations, turns and jumps, and center work.  Students will develop muscle strength, flexibility and discipline. Jazz is a great way to build a technical foundation in a fun and upbeat atmosphere. 

 

MUSICAL THEATER

With the combination of dancing and acting, this class enhances creativity, skill and self-confidence for both the beginner and experienced dancer. Using a specialized curriculum and character building activities, this class is enjoyable for all!

 

LYRICAL

Lyrical is a visually and emotionally driven form of dance where the art of storytelling unites with dance and movement. This style combines the grace of ballet, the fluidity of modern, and the classic style of jazz to create a form of dance that allows students to experience self-expression through movement. 

 

BALLET

As the foundation of all dances, ballet is fundamental to the education of any dancer using exercises at the barre, as well as center combinations that are both adagio and allegro. Students will develop grace, control, strength, and fluidity in their movement. While learning proper technique, students will develop posture, self confidence and personal discipline. Ballet terminology will be introduced and enforced in this class. Ballet will enhance a students ability and performance in all other forms of dance. 

ADAPTIVE DANCE

Adaptive Dance focuses on providing individuals with various intellectual and physical disabilities the opportunity to explore dance through various technique classes. Classes can include ballet, tap, jazz and hip hop technique. Technique classes will help students develop and expand fine motor skills, enhance communication, channel energy, stimulate imagination and promote creative learning in a welcoming inclusive environment.
