BALLET
Our Ballet classes are a combination of styles including French,
Classical and Contemporary Ballet. Ballet has a long history and is a dance
form characterized by grace, precision of movement and technique. Students
will develop poise, coordination and control as well as a feeling for the
music and a sense of accomplishment. Ballet is essential for anyone who is
serious about dance, looking for good technique in all dance forms, or a
career in dance. Ballet is highly
recommended.
BOYS BREAKDANCE
A boys only class that covers the history and culture of Breakdance.
Moves include spins, floor work, jumps and tricks!
POINTE
Pointe is a ballet class that allows girls to dance
on Pointe shoes. This class is open to students who have a strong background
in Ballet and have a thorough understanding of Ballet terms and body
placement. Students must be approved by Miss Debby in order to enroll in this
class, and to go onto pointe shoes.
HIP-HOP
Hip-Hop is a modern form of Jazz dance that
includes, popping, locking and fast movements. Hip-hop is a great second or
third class, but taking just Hip-hop is not recommended for a full dance
education. Our Hip-hop is cutting edge as we train in NYC. We also
have guest teachers directly from Madonna, Britney Spears and others' MTV
videos.
JAZZ
Jazz dance has a foundation of Ballet as well as
some Funk and Hip-hop styles. Jazz dance includes a solid technique base and
is creative and exciting. Jazz is a wonderful base class, along with
Ballet.
TAP
Our Tap classes include the most up to date style,
Rhythm Tap, as well as Broadway style and basic Tap technique. This form
of dance teaches, rhythm, strength and coordination. Muscle memory
exercises are an intricate part of Tap.
LYRICAL
Lyrical is a dance style that brings Ballet and Jazz
together. Lyrical dances often tell a story, and emphasize flexibility,
grace, leaps, turns and emotion. Our Lyrical competition team has won
multiple high scores and special awards. Students love this class as it
requires expression and passion.
CHARACTER JAZZ
This fun Jazz class includes acting, singing and
props. Broadway musicals are explored, and acted out. Characters are
developed and studied. Some past pieces these classes have performed are;
Beauty and the Beast, Dream Girls and Annie. This Jazz style especially
teaches confidence and personality.
PRE-SCHOOL COMBO
This class is open to dancers ages 2 1/2
to 5 years of age. It includes Jazz, Tap, Ballet and Creative Movement.
The dancers learn to move and control their bodies, taker turns and socialize. A love for dance is
born in this class!
5-7 YEAR OLD COMBO
This combo class is the next step after Pre-school Combo. Jazz, Tap and
Ballet are included just like the Pre-school class, and kids are challenged
according to their own abilities.
8-11 YEAR OLD COMBO
This combo class is for the next age group up, 8-11 year olds.
Ballet is a small part of this class and dancers are encouraged to take an
hour of Ballet in addition. Ballet is highly recommended at this time.
WEDDING DANCES
Choose a song, and learn
a 1 of a kind "first dance" for your wedding! Or learn
partner/ballroom dance for a special occasion. $30 per half hour.
