Classes

Theater Jazz

Hip Hop

Twerk

Twerking is a dance style featuring thrusting hip movements in a squat, done at various speeds. Some people view this style as provocative and inappropriate, however, twerking can also be seen as a unique way to move your body and a way to embrace and appreciate all your assets!

Theater Jazz

This class looks at classical and modern musical theater jazz technique and stylistic influences of the Broadway musical. It emphasizes storytelling through movement, sharp lines, musicality, and performance quality.

Tap

Tap dance is a style known for the sound the dancer creates with their tap shoes while dancing. The dancer’s body truly becomes the instrument while they merge with and become the tangible expression of the intricate rhythms of the music.

Sideline Style

Break out those poms! Powerhouse's Sideline Style class is for your inner cheerleader to come to life! You will begin with a warm-up and spend a few minutes breaking down traditional Pom motions and form. You will then learn a combo that ranges from 4 to 8 eight counts, sometimes featuring a formation change and/or a repeat that will mimic the feeling of being on the sidelines for a t-shirt toss!

Pro Dance Team Style

Get the chance to learn from current and former professional cheerleaders in Powerhouse's Pro Dance Team Style Class. These routines are about :30-:45 seconds in length, featuring technical elements that range from kicks, leaps, turns, and floorwork (with modifications often provided).

Latin Styles

In our Latin Styles classes, you will learn the basics of the specific style (listed below) and then incorporate it into a short choreography combination that you can perform solo! No partner needed for these classes.

Jazz Funk & Street Jazz

These styles can be similar and the terms are often used interchangeably. They tend to combine both jazz and street styles such as hip hop, and tend to be danced to pop music. You may find the choreography to contain somewhat less jazz technique than traditional jazz classes, with more emphasis put on style and swag than precision and sharpness.

Jazz

This performance style of dance focuses on high-energy movement, clean lines and technical skills learned in ballet. Jazz dance pairs animated expressions with sharp, yet fluid motions. You may expect to see turns and leaps in traditional jazz dance.

Hip Hop

Hip Hop Dance is a style of movement created by African-American and Latino cultures. Some key elements include bouncing, grooving and rocking. These elements are executed to Hip Hop music. Hip Hop emerged out of the Bronx, New York, also known as “The Birth Place”.

Heels

This is a sultry, confidence-boosting class that may feature elements of jazz and hip hop, while allowing you to dance in heels. Depending on the instructor and level, choreography may include floorwork, so we recommend bringing kneepads or wearing pants/leggings.

Dancehall

Dancehall is a popular music and dance style, and all-around way of life for Jamaicans. This musical style developed from the roots of reggae music in the 1980’s and started in dance halls, which are basically nightclubs and parties.

Contemporary

Contemporary dance is at its core expressive, often symbolic, and highly intertwined with the music. Choreography may be focused on either expressing the lyrics of the music or geared toward the musicality of the instruments. It is a broad style that encompasses a fusion of other styles, however it is most often known for being fluid and sometimes appearing abstract.

Ballet

Although there are various styles and methods within ballet, when we typically think of ballet, Classical ballet often comes to mind. This style is characterized by graceful, flowing movements; turned out feet; positions with long lines; balance; symmetry; and an almost ethereal quality. Ballet will challenge your physical strength, control and stamina.
