Classes are available from beginner to advanced levels for boys and girls ages 2 to adult. Students are placed in classes according to age, experience and skill level. Classes are 1 hour in length, (some 1 1/2 hour classes are available to our more advanced students at the instructor's discretion) and are available in the following disciplines:
There are also two introductory classes we call Babes in Motion (ages 2 to 3) and Petites in Motion (ages 3 to 4). Each student has the opportunity to participate in our fabulous annual recital. The dress code for all dance classes can be found here.
Ages 2 to 3 . A great way for your little one to experience dance for the first time. Children learn basic ballet and jazz steps as well as co-ordination through skipping, galloping and marching. Some work may also be done using mats doing, for example, forward rolls, backward rolls, bridges, etc.
Ages 3 to 4. Our second introductory level for ages 3 to 4. Petites in Motion builds on our Babes in Motion class, but is also a great place to start! Both Babes and Petites are geared toward creating a solid foundation in dance. Students listen to age appropriate music such as Disney or Hi-5 and are encouraged to develop both discipline and imagination through turn taking and dance activities. Note: both our Babes in Motion and Petites in Motion classes have 2 instructors present at all times to best supervise and meet your child's needs.
Ages 4 to 5. Kinderdance is our transition from our introductory levels to our more structured disciplines of dance. Focusing on ballet and jazz technique, students will be introduced to new steps and work on combining these steps into movement across the room. Kinderdance is the perfect way to prepare students for any of our individual dance disciplines.
Ages 5 and up. Ballet is the foundation of all forms of dance and is a must for the serious dancer. Ballet teaches poise, grace and balance through work at the barre, in the center, and traveling across the floor.
Ages 5 and up. Tap is like making music with you feet! Tap teaches timing, co-ordination and awareness of rhythm and beat.
Ages 5 and up. Set to upbeat music, jazz teaches co-ordination and flexibility with kicks, turns and combinations across the room.
Ages 5 and up. Combining acrobatic and dance steps, students work on stretch and flexibility, beginning with cartwheels and handstands and progressing to tumbling and aerial work.
Ages 6 and up. The latest dance craze as seen in videos and movies! Set to popular music, hip hop combines street dance and isolations.
Ages 8 and up. Students are required to have a minimum of 1 year of jazz experience. Lyrical combines both jazz and ballet with a focus on grace and style. Students learn to portray lyrics through dance.
An advanced form of ballet for students selected by the teacher. Dancers must have extensive ballet training before being considered for Pointe classes.
