Contemporary is interpretive, improvizational, and story-telling with abstract movement and choreography. Disciplines are a combination of ballet, jazz and modern techniques, and students must have at least a year of ballet or jazz and also be currently enrolled for a jazz or ballet class.

Tap classes incorporate the classic steps of tap dancing while adding a fresh approach to choreography. Dancers learn to coordinate rhythm, agility, and musicality to execute clear tap sounds and movement.

Hip Hop classes focus on variety of styles of hip hop, including breaking, popping, locking, groove, jazz funk, etc. Dancers are encouraged to push themselves to explore new movements and to understand the elements of choreography, music, and performance.

Jazz classes focus on both classic and current styles of jazz, while keeping emphasis on technique, center, and placement. Creative routines are taught and dancers learn how to interpret their music with control and fluidity. Classes integrate the fundamentals of ballet for proper technique, while using upbeat music and movement. We highly recommend students continue ballet training while taking jazz.

Ballet is considered the foundation of technique. Classes focus on the classical elements of ballet, teaching students proper technique and body alignment. Classes demand high focus from the student but are very valuable to their progression as a dancer. Sound ballet technique is essential for strength, power, and execution of each dancer.
