Jazz: incorporates foundations of proper body alignment, technique, flexibility and classic jazz dance vocabulary with an upbeat rhythm-based style.
Lyrical: is a style that builds upon a foundation of classical ballet technique with an emphasis on finding freedom in the movement. Dancers focus on understanding the dynamics and initiation of the movement along with a sense of breath, musicality, and connection to a story.
Mommy & Me: budding dancers begin their journey in the studio learning movement exercises, coordination and creative dances. In this mommy and me class, your child will fall in love with dance!
Pointe: is the part of classical ballet technique that concerns pointe work, in which a ballet dancer supports all body weight on the tips of fully extended feet. Pointe work is performed while wearing pointe shoes. A dancer should never work in pointe shoes until their teacher has told them they are ready to do so, pre-pointe class is taken in ballet slippers until the dancer has developed the strength and muscles necessary to go en pointe.
Tap: combines rhythm and coordination to make music with the feet and body. Students will learn the basics of tap technique and musicality.
