ABOUT OUR DANCE CLASSES

Ballet

Ballet is the foundation of dance and all technique disciplines are derived from Ballet. Ballet introduces technique through barre work, across the floor, and center exercises to give students a strong foundation of skills. We strongly encourage all students taking classes to include ballet in their weekly dance schedule to help them excel and progress in their dance education. There will be an emphasis on technique, poise, rhythm, and self-discipline. Principles related to body alignment, muscle control, timing, and spatial awareness will be investigated as well.

Hip Hop

Exciting street-style choreography that focuses on individual style and expression is paired up with popular and age-appropriate music to create fun performances. It encompasses everything from popping and locking to break dancing, footwork, jumps, and ticking. Hip Hop dance is a balance of letting go and being loose with your body and movements, while at the same time controlling them as well. Whether it is fast or slow, Hip Hop is a style of dance that is filled with character, attitude, and fun!!
