Private lessons

ELITE
$175.00

The most advanced class offered at 120 minutes long. Dancers are required to audition every season to hold their place in the Elite class. Required re-auditions ensure that our Elite dancers are continuing to strive for excellence and overall outstanding dance training and technique. In addition to excellent technique, leadership, positivity, and drive, our Elite dancers are chosen based off of how they represent themselves and our studio’s mission both in and out of a studio setting.

evolution elite (and elite)
$175.00

In addition to repetition and advanced progressions of all ballet (and dance) terminology, technique, and skills; dancers further develop, strengthen, and condition their bodies each class to ensure safe practices both short and long-term in their dance training. Expectations are the highest in these classes as they represent our top “elite” dancers and performers who not only represent the “top tier” of the Express Dance & Fitness studio skills-wise, but also in professionalism, class, maturity, excellent work ethic, positive attitude, and overall respect both in and out of studio.

pre-level 3 and level 3
Pre-3 & Level 3 Classes $98, $139, or $175 per month (determined by duration)

In addition to the repetition and building onto the foundations of the genres already covered in this class; higher expectations of our dancers in this class from myself (Ms. Hannah) are a crucial part of our training style as I plan to push, nurture, and prepare your child for any of the “Express Elite” or “Evolution Elite” classes. Additional expectations are for dancers to harness/achieve leaps and turns while using their technique, strength, and flexibility knowledge, facial expressions, and proper body alignment learned in years prior and continued throughout the year

Level 2
$98.00

Repetition of (and building onto) ballet, tap, and jazz technique and terminology, as well as a beginner’s intro to lyrical, contemporary, jazz funk, and hip-hop styles of dancing (if the class is ready). In addition to safely strengthening and conditioning their bodies in flexibility, strength, and dance technique, our dancers begin to learn more advanced leaps, turns, “tricks” and choreography all while being educated on proper body alignment, anatomy (muscle, bone, and joint definitions and locations), and how to safely, properly, and effectively train their bodies.

pre-level 1 and Level 1
$98.00

Repetition of (and building onto) ballet and tap terminology, skills, and curriculum in addition to “beginner jazz” (if the class is ready). This class will gradually learn the basic make-up of simple turns and leaps with age-appropriate strengthening, flexibility, and conditioning progressions in order to safely and effectively train each participant. In addition, the “gentle but firm” coaching and teaching-style approach is applicable to ALL Express Dance classes and levels.

Pre-Prima's
$77.00

Gentle but firm instruction, correction, and attention to dancers following directions in a class setting while remaining respectful and kind to the studio space, dance peers, and instructors. Technically, an intro to dance and finding the joy of movement, balance and coordination, and an intro to the fundamentals of ballet and tap. Foundational positions of the hands and feet in both genres while working on proper body alignment and the appropriate facial expressions for each genre additionally, aid within our “Pre-Prima” class approach.
