Summer 2025 Dance Intensive
featuring
Ballet, POMS, & Step
Ballet 1/2
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.
Poms
Poms is a high-energy experience where students learn the fundamentals of pom dance alongside the technical elements of musicality. It’s the perfect foundation for anyone aiming to join a dance or cheer team. Dancers will master sharp cheer motions, dynamic jumps, graceful pirouettes, and powerful leaps. Picture the spirit and intensity of Bring It On—that’s the vibe we’re bringing to every class.
Step
Step is a dynamic, percussive dance style that transforms the body—especially the feet—into instruments to produce intricate rhythms and sounds. It fosters teamwork, discipline, and sharpens our ability to listen deeply to the environment around us. Students will learn two to three rhythmic step sequences and collaborate to unify their movements into one cohesive sound.
