Classical Ballet
1-1-1/2 Hour Class
(All Levels) - This form of dance is the foundation of all other types of dance technique. Proper training enhances coordination, creates balance and flexibility. Emphasis is on clarity, precision, correct technique and body mechanics which enables the student to develop the polished, classical look for a dancer, which will over flow into all other phases of dance and other aspects of life.
Jazz & Tap
1 Hour Class or More
(All Levels) - Includes stretching, center floor excercises, progressions and choreographed routines in both jazz and tap. Jazz is an exciting form of dance frequently seen on television, stage and films. It combines the discipline of correct technique training with the emphasis on over-all conditioning, stamina and developing different performance styles, using the latest dance moves with the popular music of today as well as show tunes. Tap is a dance form that expresses an intricate rhythmic pattern to various types of music. It develops flexibility, coordination, balance, timing and is fun to do. It is very useful to those interested in musical theatre or professional performing.
Hip Hop
1 Hour Class
(All Levels) - Popular dance style of the 21st century. Learn all of the latest video and "Club" moves while getting a great cardiovascular, aerobic workout. Hip Hop not only reinforces the basic premise of Jazz class (body isolation), but strengthens and tones the entire body. When added to a dancer's regular cirriculum, Hip Hop improves coordination and endurance, and enhances performance skills. Great excercise and lots of fun for dancers of all ages and levels!
Kid Fit
45 Minute Class
The same as hip hop but with no recital commitment. More emphasis on body toning and strengthening & aerobic workout.
Dance Companies
Co. Dance I, II, III, IV (ages 6 and up) were created for those students interested in a more intensified and involved dance experience. Ballet is required for all company dancers (classroom only) and solos, duos and trios (for performance) are offered soley to company dancers at teachers discretion.
We are creating lasting friendships and memories while learning proper technique and performance skills. Our goal is to provide a unique and positive experience for children who truly love to dance (and perform) without the rigors, cost and time consumption of year-round competitions.
