Kids Ballet

Ballet classes will help dancers with posture, flexibility, fitness, balance, self-discipline, and self-confidence. Students are taught proper body placement, body alignment, barre and center floor work, along with across the floor combinations.

Kids Hip Hop

Hip hop is a high-energy class that will encourage students to step outside of the box by bringing their own individual style and personality to the movements. Hip hop dance requires students to have the strength and stamina to successfully perform moves. Therefore class includes upper and lower body conditioning as well as a warm-up to help prepare students for more intense movements.

Kids Jazz

Jazz class will focus on learning proper dance technique such as isolations of the body, improving performance quality and developing complex rhythms and patterns. Students will be exposed to various styles of jazz to help develop a well rounded dancer. Class curriculum is based on ballet technique layered with traditional jazz movement and includes a proper warm-up, stretches, isolations, across-the-floor progressions, and combinations.

Kids Baton
Not in session for Fall 2024

Baton twirling is an art involving the manipulation of a metal rod and the performer's body to a coordinated routine. Baton twirling helps students develop their eye-hand coordination, increases their ability to use both sides of their mind and body, and encourages them to be active in an increasingly sedentary world.
