The Airborne Dance Company is a co-ed and inclusive competitive performance group for dancers looking to further their dance education, consisting of five different competitive performance groups.

Studio Hip-Hop is rooted in original street dances created by African American and communities of color, emphasizing self-expression, individuality, moving to the beat, and exploring personal groove.

Musical theater classes offer a unique dance experience practicing performance, training basic jazz steps, singing, and acting, prioritizing animated facial expressions and storytelling through movement.

Modern is a dance style that evolved from ballet, encouraging students to think of dance as an artform and themselves as artists, utilizing somatic practices, improvisation, and floor work.

Tap is both a form of dance and music, exploring traditional drumming rhythms using feet, starting with rhythm games and fundamental steps before complex combinations.

Jazz is a dance style that evolved from African Dance rhythms and traditions, seen from Broadway to backup dancers, focusing on isolations, strength, and dynamic progressions.

In Ballet classes, dancers will learn true French vocabulary based in RAD training, work at the barre, and move across the floor, exploring a range of graceful and dramatic movements.

Combination classes are taught by Academy coaches during the gym portion, and our professional dance staff during the dance class. These classes are 75 minutes and include 10 minutes of warm-up, 30 minutes in the gym, 30 minutes in the studio, and a 5 minute closing activity. Combination classes are ideal for entry level students who want a taste of different activities all in one class. Once students have completed level 1 both of their class types, it’s recommended to take GymStar 2 in addition to the level 2 of their dance class and train each class independently to continue maximum learning.

Our Dance & Gymnastics Combo classes give students the opportunity to experience both dance and gymnastics in one class! Students will receive instruction from both our SweetPea/GymStar/NinjaZone curriculum and Fundamental Dance curriculums in class each week. Combo class students can participate in the events associated with Airborne Dance – the Winter Showcase and Annual Recital!

Classes are 60 minutes long, and it’s recommended to train twice per week (second class can be a T&T 3 class) to master new challenging skills.

Four Peas’ increasing coordination makes them faster and more deliberate. Their increasing strength makes them able to perform many new gymnastics skills. Their cognitive development is growing by leaps and bounds and they are able to interpret and remember learning objectives. Four Peas can recognize and name many letters & numbers. They can count in unison and repeat simple stories and sequences. Our Kinder Peas are ready to test their skills! Five-year olds have reached physical and developmental milestones that allow them to progress rapidly. With longer limbs, more refined coordination and stronger language skills, Kinder Peas can run faster, climb higher and hold longer! Kinder Peas are increasingly capable of predicting and successfully completing known circuits and are given opportunities to independently navigate an active learning circuit. Kinder Peas love showing off and are encouraged to try new skills, improve their form and do it again.

Our Parent/Tot gymnastics program is designed, first and foremost, to be a fun and safe learning experience for your child. We also teach basic gymnastics movements paralleling the motor skill charts your pediatrician uses to assess normal development, incorporating many creative activities into the lesson plans. Your child will stay happily engaged in the class, while getting the necessary repetitions to consolidate new neural pathways to help them get stronger, move faster, and solve problems using a variety of strategies! Your role as a parent in these classes is to actively assist your child and the teacher. Your attention will be focused on your child 100% of the time. With our assistance, you will guide your child through gymnastics circuits, applaud their successes, and provide hands-on support- “spotting”- as necessary.
