BALLET
For ages 5 and up, Ballet started in ballrooms during the Renaissance where social dance had intricate floor-plans. Today, ballet teaches strength, poise, and balance. Dancers are trained at the barre in order to develop correct posture and to prepare the body for the demands of classical dance.

CHEERDANCE

When combined with pom pons and other visual props, dances are not only fun to watch, but fun to perform. Whether you have been cheering for years and would like to enhance your technique or this is your first time trying it out, you will be sure to have a blast in this super fun, spirited class.

HIP HOP/STREET FUNK
This is a form of jazz dance and is all the rage in music videos. It features dance styles made popular by the "top 40" singers of the moment, and is recommended for students ages 5 and up. Street Funk is a little edgier for our older dancers.

JAZZ
The roots of jazz dance borrow from a melting pot. As we know it today, jazz is a blend of two main movements - folk dance and theatre dance. It teaches strength, power and flexibility and is performed to contemporary music. Jazz dance is lively, fun, and full of rhythm for all ages.

LYRICAL
A beautiful style of dance which blends the stylings of ballet and jazz. Music selected usually has strong meaning and the choreography is designed to tell a story or express the feeling/mood of the music. Previous ballet and/or jazz experience is preferred, but not required.

MODERN
Often performed barefoot, Modern, also known as contemporary, is now more than 100 years old. Although similar to ballet in many ways, it uses movements that are freer and a more natural form of expressive dance. This is a great class for students age 13 and up.

MUSICAL THEATER
A fun and expressive class covering the variety of styles used in Broadway theater choreography. Dancers ages 12 and up will work on developing performance technique and facial expression. A basic jazz background is recommended. A great class for those who just love to put on a show!

POINTE

STREET FUNK/HIP HOP
This is a form of jazz dance and is all the rage in music videos. It features dance styles made popular by the "top 40" singers of the moment, and is recommended for students with some jazz training ages 5 and up. Street Funk is a little edgier for our older dancers.

TAP
Tap dancing is an American art form. It is a step dance tapped out audibly with hard soled shoes. It was born in the 1800's meshing a wide spectrum of percussive dance styles - African, English, Irish and Scottish. It teaches tempo and rhythm whether you like soft shoe or flash tap, whether you are 3 or 63!

TECHNIQUE CLASSES - F&C and T&J
