Class Descriptions
Our Dance Exploration classes provide beginning dancers an introduction to tap, jazz and ballet technique. The dancers will work on rhythm, balance, and coordination in fun and exciting atmosphere! These classes perform twice in our annual end of year recital. BASIC TAP, JAZZ & BALLET Basic classes continue to build on the fundamentals of each of these styles. Bridging the gap from the dance exploration classes to the level 1 classes. Students will learn the traditional form of dance that trains the body and the mind. They will develop flexibility, strength, control, coordination, line and musicality. Pointe For those students who want to take their ballet training to the next level. Students must be recommended for pointe by their ballet instructor. JAZZ Students will learn ballet based technique (turns, leaps, jumps) while learning to put them together in exciting, energetic combinations. Students will get to experience traditional jazz (Broadway, Fosse, Giordano) to Contemporary style jazz. Our tap classes focus on all the different styles of tap.
