classes offered

JAZZ

Our jazz classes offer dynamic choreography and technique intertwined with creative lesson plans and a fun environment. This class is a faster paced class where“today’s music” is often what our students dance to. Jazz focuses on musicality and style as much as technique, to create a well stylized dancer. Jazz helps improve flexibility, strength, and the ability to pickup choreography.

CONTEMPORARY

Contemporary is a dance form that focuses on the style of expression combining elements from many genres including Modern, Jazz, Lyrical andBallet. Contemporary improves the awareness of your body and the space around you while creating fluid movement.

LYRICAL

Lyrical combines the elements and technique of ballet and jazz to create a soft style that focuses on the storytelling side of the lyrics. An emphasis is placed on the grace and fluidity of movement to help create the story being told in the music. Lyrical is often one of
the most expressive and emotional forms of dance.

TAP

Tap is a style of dance
characterized by the sound of the
metal tap striking the floor. Tap
utilizes rhythm, syncopation, and
sound in addition to movement.
Rhythmic skills are developed as
tap feet become percussive
instruments. Strength and control
of the legs, ankles, and feet are
increased while developing a
keener ear for music.

HIP HOP

Originating from the streets, Hip
Hop is a fast paced, high-energy
class that combines the different
styles of street dance. Commonly
seen in music videos and concerts,
Hip Hop encourages students to
create their own styles and swag.
Hip Hop encourages students to
step out of their comfort zone by
building confidence in every
dancer.

ACRO

Acro is a combination of dance and gymnastics. Students will learn to blend the two forms of movement with the focus on strength, flexibility, balance and contortion. They will learn tumbling skills alongside partner work as well as conditioning.

MODERN

Modern is a broad genre of
western concert or theatrical dance which includes elements of styles such as ballet, folk, ethnic,
religious, and social dancing. It is a
highly expressive style of dance
that challenges the structured
dance technique of classical ballet. Students often will learn one or a blend of the following techniques: Alexander Technique,
Cunningham, Graham, Horton and Limon.
