Pre-Dance

This is a fun introductory class that will introduce students to dance. Creative movement and activities help introduce the beginning fundamentals of ballet, jazz, & tumbling. Students also play games which enhance cognitive & social development and learn classroom etiquette.


Workshop

Classes geared to instruction in Ballet, Tap, and Jazz, for the slightly advanced Pre Dancer. These classes run a bit longer and offers a challenge to give the basic fundamentals of a beginner Ballet class that follows. This class will determine the dancers desire to continue dancing and go on to further dance levels. This is a Combo-Class.

​​

Ballet

Students are taught ballet fundamentals, including body alignment, vocabulary, and basic positions of the feet & arms. Students move into center floor work and progress into more intermediate and advanced technique. Students will move through Barre’, center work, and progressions which include turns, jumps, leaps and choreography.

​

Lyrical/Contemporary

This class is a fusion of ballet and jazz dance techniques. It challenges the dancers to use motion to interpret music and express emotion. The dancer's movements attempt to show the meaning of the music. Moreover, the dancer must be well aware of facial expressions, essentially acting, to properly perform a lyrical dance piece.

​

Pre-Pointe (No Pointe shoes)

Class may be taken by students who are not yet on Pointe to further develop and strengthen the muscles necessary to go on Pointe.  Students on Pointe must take at least two additional classes per week. Readiness for Pointe work is determined by each student’s strength and physical development, not by their age. Pointe class may be taken only with the permission of the instructor.

​

Liturgical Dance

Worship, Gospel and Praise! A sacred dance genre done with the aesthetics of ballet, modern and lyrical dance in compassing storyline, Bible verses and contemporary Gospel music.

​

Adult Ballet

This class will include students with no previous training as well as those with several years of experience. Students will advance with their own ability levels through intermediate Barre’, center work, & progressions.

​

Jazz

This class begins with basic jazz technique, focusing on jazz positions, turns, jumps, & leaps. Students will move to center, locomotor progressions and stretching techniques to enhance strength and flexibility. As students progress, advanced skills and choreography augment technique training as well as serious dance conditioning. It is strongly recommended, but not required, to take a ballet class to complement jazz training.

 

Tap

This class, with multiple ability levels, will focus on tap fundamentals including basic tap steps, time steps, wings, cramp rolls, pull backs and much more. Students will be paired up with students of the same skill level and will progress according to their own prior training and ability.

​

Hip-Hop

Past hip hop experience is great, but even beginners will have a blast in this fast paced, high energy dance class which introduces basic hip hop, the latest trends, and exciting break-dancing moves. Dance conditioning will be introduced to strengthen the body for more advanced hip-hip training. All movement will be modest and age appropriate. All music will be free of questionable lyrics.

​

Tumbling
