Heather's Dance Co, LLC

Pre Combo and Combo 1-2 classes include tap, ballet, jazz/hip hop and tumbling. Classes are 45 minutes or an hour long, some seasons we offer 2 styles in a combo class (tap/ballet). These classes are designed for the dancer that wants to do a little of everything. Each class will touch on all four styles of dance each month.

Weighted professional baton only. This class requires the development of hand eye coordination while twirling and tossing skills are learned. Some various upbeat music is used while doing formation changes such as a ”marching band” would do. Twirling is great for fine motor skill development.

Some various upbeat music is used and some dance moves may be taught as fillers in routines. This class is for large motor skill and memory development.

Floor mats are used to gain strength, skill and flexibility. Cartwheels, Backbends and Handsprings are introduced. This class is for large motor skill and memory development.

Classes work at the barre for technique and strength skills and center and across the floor steps to develop balance, speed and strength as in the traditional ballet class. Lyrical combinations are also incorporated into the class. Lyrical dance uses more emotions and feelings to tell a story about the dance piece. More worship and praise music is used in this class or slower modern music with emotional lyrics.

Classes work at the barre for technique and strength skills. Center and across the floor steps develop balance, speed and strength. This class is not all slow, many jumps and quick steps are learned. Traditional classical music is used for conventional ballet, some praise and worship music is used for turns and leaps. Fine motor skills, muscle memory, strength and technique are developed in this class along with vocabulary and memory skills.

Both styles are combined until the Teen Level. Dance is mostly center floor and across the floor combinations. Music varies but is mostly upbeat, including Christian R&B artists and rap artists. For jazz steps, including kicks, turns, and leaps, students are taught to “pull up” and dance from their center with and on pointed toes. The Hip Hop portion of the class focuses on the “earthy”, low and flexed body positions. Rib and hip isolations are included in the class, but modesty is maintained and gyrations are not allowed. This class is more for large motor skill and memory development.

Dance is at the barre for technique development and center floor for balance and combination skills. Music type varies but is usually upbeat. Steps are learned by making rhythmic sounds on the floor with tap shoes. aka: “noisy shoe class” Great for fine motor skill development, especially for the feet and ankles and teaching rhythm and memory skills.

This class is for the very young/beginner. These classes offer a variety of Ballet, Jazz and Tumbling incorporated through individual steps and games each week. The class focuses on paying attention and listening to directions while improving large motor skills. Props are used to enhance the experience for the student. Each class rotates from style of dance depending upon the attention span and “mood” of the class. The recital routine is usually a type of preschool song and dance.
