Preschool
Class is an introduction to movement. Building self-esteem through creative dance, ballet, tap and pre-jazz. The very young student will not become a proficient dancer or learn extensive choreography. The objective is to teach basic musicality and movement skills and to improve gross motor skills.
Ballet and Pre-Pointe
Classes consist of barre and center floor combinations. Ballet focuses on correct alignment and posture and develops strength, balance and flexibility.
Pointe
Students must have taken Pre-Pointe and Ballet for two years before going on Pointe. It is extremely important for students to be technically and physically ready to avoid injury. Students will be enrolled in this class by invitation only.
Tap
Classes begin with warm-up exercises. Rhythm is essential in tap. We will focus on layering sounds and improving coordination. A combination is taught at the end of each class. Tap is fun for any age.
Clogging
Origination from Irish traditions, this dance form eventually adapted into English step-dancing. In its current form, lines of dancers perform precise choreography using double action taps and little upper body movement.
Jazz
Jazz teacher proper stretching, technique, turns, leaps, isolations, and footwork. The class covers progressions and choreography. As students progress we begin focusing on presentation.
Lyrical
Using ballet, jazz and modern techniques, lyrical allows dancers to place emphasis on the emotional content of music. Using choreography styles to communicate the emotion and intent of the piece to their audience, dancers explore the musicality of dance and physical movement.
Theatre Jazz
Basic use of dance and acting skills in combination with mime and musical education. Students learn about show tunes and famous musical Broadway plays. If you like to act and dance, this class is for you!
Hip-Hop
A fast paced class that encourages students to express themselves through popular dance music combined with energy, pop-and-lock techniques, and street funk. This class allows the student to practice moves they see in music videos.
Cheerdance
Combination class includes cheer motions, hip-hop style dance with precision movements. We will focus on cartwheels, round offs, backbends, toe touches, pike jumps, and kicks. This class is recommended for students who are enthusiastic and “full of energy”.
