Classes

Jazz dance is a form of dance that originates from both African and European dance styles. Jazz dance improves rhythm, musicality, and isolations. Jazz dance is a mix of fast movements and strong technical skills to upbeat music.

Ballet is the foundation of all dance. Ballet includes several barre exercises, across the floor exercises, and different progressions of adagio. Ballet strengthens balance, control, and grace. Ballet is mandatory for all competition dancers.

Students with a strong ballet foundation and who are enrolled in ballet technique classes are welcome to continue their ballet training with pre-pointe. This class will focus on strengthening the ankles and lower body to prepare dancers to eventually go en pointe. This class will include dancers working outside of class doing ankle strengthening and core exercises to ensure that the dancer does not go en pointe unprepared.

Modern and dynamic, hip hop is certainly addictive. This powerful, high-energy dance style relies on a punchy beat and a little bit of attitude! The Hip Hop craze remains popular around the world and students will love these dynamic classes. Hiphop strengthens musicality, coordination, and rhythm.

Our musical theater class is similar to our jazz, but with an emphasis on musicality, face and body performance, and acting while dancing. Students will learn original broadway dance combinations as well as original choreography from our teachers to your favorite broadway songs, all while learning how to portray a character on stage. Acting drills and exercises will also be implemented to help dancers with their character development on stage.
