About Connie's Studio of Dance

Connie's Studio of Dance, located in South Rockwood, Michigan, offers a comprehensive and foundational approach to dance education for students of all ages. Under the guidance of Owner and Artistic Director Natalie McLaughlin, a dancer with 29 years of experience and a strong lineage from studio founder Connie, the studio cultivates talent across a diverse range of disciplines. Natalie's extensive training includes work with renowned choreographers and performing with Ballet Americana and the Radio City Rockettes. Drawing on her background as a Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant, she ensures correct form and prioritizes injury prevention. Students can explore a rich curriculum encompassing Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Lyrical, Contemporary, and Acrobatics. The studio emphasizes Ballet as a foundational discipline for developing poise and flexibility, with specialized classes like Pointe available for experienced dancers. Young dancers, starting at age 2, can discover the joy of Tap and rhythmic movement, while those aged 5 and above can delve into the dynamic kicks, turns, and leaps of Jazz. Hip Hop offers energetic street-dance styles, and Lyrical beautifully blends Ballet and Jazz elements. Polynesian (Hawaiian/Tahitian) and Tumbling are also offered. Connie's Studio of Dance also features 'Team' classes in Senior Lyrical and Senior Jazz, providing advanced training and performance opportunities. The studio is dedicated to nurturing a passion for dance, fostering artistic growth in a supportive environment for beginners to advanced dancers.

Classes

Tumbling

Beginning at the age of 3. Aids in the development of large motor skills and flexibility. We also offer tumbling for cheer-leading preparation.

Polynesian (Hawaiian / Tahitian)

Beginning at the age of 5 or 6. Their attention span and coordination level allows them to take on the task of coordinating their arms and hips together. Hawaiian is slow and the whole story is told with the hands. Tahitian is done to the rapid beat of the drums, and primarily works the hips to the beat of the music. Certain props are used in the Tahitian dance such as EE’s, Poi Balls, Uli Uli’s, Bamboo Sticks, and more. These particular props are used to help advance the dancer.

Hip Hop

Beginning about the age of 5 or 6. A type of street dance that incorporates jerky, direct, sharp and smooth movements. We recommend that our students have a background of Jazz before taking on Hip Hop.

Jazz

Beginning at the age of 5. Their attention span and coordination level is ready to take on more difficult movements. Jazz includes kicks, turns, leaps, isolations and more.

Tap

Beginning at the age of 2. Over the years it has been proven that the sound of the tap shoes in addition to the upbeat music, helps hold the interest of a toddler and pre-schooler. Tap focuses on the rhythmic movements and sounds of the feet.

Pointe

Pointe is offered to the intermediate and advanced ballet dancers. Students must be at the age of 12 to begin Pointe, and have had at least two to four years of ballet training. By this time we feel that muscle tone and coordination is more developed, along with the small bones in the feet-which are not totally fused together until the age of about seventeen.

Ballet

This is the foundation of all other dance! Ballet aids in making a great Tap dancer, Jazz dancer, gymnast, model, etc. It provides poise, correct body alignment, flexibility, balance and lightness. Ballet is a very discipline type of dance; therefore we do not recommend that a child starts until the age of six.
