Dance Programs


Ballet	Ballet is the basis of all dance. Body alignment, technique, musicality and grace combine to produce a wonderful fluidity of movement.
Breakdance	A freestyle dance medium, utilizing a combination of style and power movements involving drops and spins. Individuality is shown in intricate footwork and freezes.
Hip-Hop	Dance at its rawest form, hip-hop dance combines ultra funky movements like ‘locking’, ‘popping’ and ‘breaking’ to produce a high energy, rhythmic dance style. The body moves out of control then back into control snapping into position, collapsing, then snapping back.
Jazz	Fast moving, action-packed style of dance using dynamic, high-energy movement. Jazz technique develops flexibility and co-ordination of total body.
Lyrical	A fusion of ballet and jazz dance technique but with a strong emphasis on emotions and storytelling.
Modern	Modern dance combines the precision of ballet with the inovation and freedom of movement in jazz. Modern dance allows the dancer to express his/her creativity in a more free form of physical art.
Muscial Theatre	Singing, dancing and acting all in one fun class!
Pointe	A form of ballet danced on the tips of the toes, made possible by specialized shoes.
Tap	A very high-energy style of dance, where rhythm, style and technique are intertwined to let your feet play the music.
