Ballet
This class provides a nurturing and inspiring introduction to the fundamentals of classical ballet. Dancers will develop body awareness, posture, coordination, and musicality through age-appropriate exercises at the barre and center. Students will explore basic ballet positions, steps, and terminology while gaining confidence, discipline, and a love for the art form. Designed for beginners and those with up to one year of prior training, this class emphasizes creativity, self-expression, and technique in a fun, supportive environment.
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.
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.
