Preschool / Combo 1
These classes introduce the basics of both ballat and tap to the student. The class is full of music the student will recognize and props with which they will love dancing. We want both students and parents to leave class with a smile on their face. Parents are welcome in the studio to observe. Ages range from 2-4 for preschool and 5-7 for Combo 1.
Combo 2, 3 and 4
We feel this is the best class for students to start with. The class starts with ballet and finishes with tap. We have three levels of Combo Classes. Students learn the basics and then continue to develop their technique in both disciplines. They are moved up in level depending on ability. This is a great class for the recreational dancer.
Ballet
A vision comes to mind of a beautiful ballerina floating across the stage on her toes. What she does looks effortless and graceful. For a moment you catch your breath. To achieve that vision, a ballerina will have spent countless hours in the studio developing, refining, and strengthening her technique. We will help serious ballet students to get well on their way to achieving that vision. We offer technique classes for different ages and levels of ability. Pointe is available to qualifying students.
Pointe
- Must have at least two years of ballet training and have instructors recommendation.
- 12 years of age.
- Must be taking two ballet classes. One of those classes may be a Combo class.
Tap
Our tap class is dedicated to the mastery of rhythm both simple and complex. Emphasis is placed on the dancer as musician. Dancers will learn to develop many different rhythmic patterns and focus on acquiring a broad vocabulary of tap steps. They will learn counter rhythms, syncopation, stop time, accents and shading through various short combinations and across the floor exercises. Beginner to advanced classes are offered.
Jazz
Our jazz class is a fast paced high energy class, designed to stress individual artistry and interpretation of the dance elements of jazz. The first 15-30 minutes of class we will warm up the body through stretching and various other exercises involving isolation movements and balance as well as strengthening core muscle groups. Sassy Jazz for ages 5-7 through advanced levels are offered.
