Class Descriptions

Acrobatics/Tumbling

(Ages 4+)
Similar to the floor skills of gymnastics, it is a high energy performing art that focuses on strength, stretch, balance and partnering work (stunting). Basic tumbling includes backbends, cartwheels, handstands/headstands, rolls, walkovers, handsprings, aerial tricks and more. Ages 6 and up; beginner thru advanced.

Combination Classes

(Ages 3-6)
This program includes ballet and tap for the beginner students taught in a nurturing environment making dance a fun experience. It provides the young dancer with a strong foundation in dance and movement . The class introduces students to the basic elements of dance including locomotor movements (hopping, skipping, jumping), beat and time, musical rhythm, simplified ballet steps, limbering exercises, coordination skills, left and right discrimination and patterns of movement. Integrated with these physical concepts are the intellectual concepts of self-awareness, creative expression, teamwork, and self-confidence. Students will also learn the basics of classroom behavior and manners.

Hip Hop

(Ages 6+)
High energy freestyle dance form that has evolved from breakdancing, streetdancing, urban, and jazz into one of the most popular forms today.

Jazz

(Ages 6+)
Fun, upbeat style of dance that stems from ballet and combines today’s stylish moves with energetic, popular music. Our jazz classes take many forms from classical to theatrical to lyrical. Classes usually begin with a warm-up, followed by technique, across-the-floor combinations and choreography. One hour jazz classes are offered for ages 6 and up, beginner thru advanced.

Tap

(Ages 7+)
A truly American style of dance, tap has found a resurgence in the past few years. Great for developing rhythmic coordination skills. One hour tap classes are offered for ages 7 and up; beginner thru advanced.
