TODDLER/CHILD COMBOS
Our exclusive"Children's Introduction To Dance" provides the young dancer with a fun, motivating 1st experience with dance in learning the basics of ballet technique, coordination, flexibility, use of space concepts, free movement and musicality development. "Combo" classes give the young/novice dancer the opportunity to try out multiple dance forms in one class. Hip Hop/Jazz combo classes is the perfect introduction of a different genre where popular jazz and hip hop dance techniques are taught.
BALLET
Ballet is THE foundation and basis of all forms of dance. Classical, contemporary, and modern ballet styles are taught with an emphasis on proper technical training and injury prevention. Ballet also develops proper placement, coordination, flexibility, balance, control, grace, and musicality.
JAZZ
Jazz is a motivating, energetic, ever-evolving dance form. This technique is taught through the basics of ballet technique developing further coordination, flexibility, balance, strength, musicality and rhythm. Classes are taught by breaking down turns, leaps and jumping techniques, as well as flexibility while fostering each individual student’s style.
CONTEMPORARY
Contemporary dance is a fluid form of dance combining the beauty and control of a ballet basis, with the sharpness of jazz, and the interpretive side of modern dance. Dancers are taught to interpret their movements with feeling, motion, and style while incorporating a strong emphasis on ballet and jazz technique.
HIP HOP
Hip Hop is the latest, high energy form of dance! Classes are taught with the most current, edited, appropriate versions of music from the pop culture of hip hop.
