Creative Movement
Creative Movement is the perfect outlet for the young student who loves to dance! Students will explore how their body moves, body awareness and how to share the space with others while enjoying music and dance games. The class begins with ballet, moves to tap, and finishes with some tumble time. This class will prepare pre-school-aged children to enjoy a more structured class in the future.
Ballet/Tap Combo
This is a great class for young dancers who are interested in trying two different dance styles. It is a Level I class, so it is more advanced than Creative Movement. The first half of the class is devoted to ballet, and the class finishes with tap.
Jazz/Acro Combo
This Level I class is a perfect transition to follow Creative Movement. The beginning dancer is introduced to jazz technique in the first half of the class and finishes up with acro/tumbling time.
Ballet
Ballet is a highly technical form of dance with its own vocabulary based on French terminology. It is the foundation for essential skills of dance that are found in all other dance styles.
TLJ (Turns, Leaps, and Jumps)

Jazz

Lyrical
