Classes

All Boys Hip Hop

This is for all the boys that want to dance!!! This class allows for our boys to explore the world of dance in a fun manner that is geared towards them, and help build their self confidence as well. We encourage all boys to try dance in a safe environment, whether they are just starting out or have a few years of experience, building the bonds between the boys is part of the experience of an all boys class!!!

Acrobatics

Acrobatics (acro) focuses on tumbling, cartwheels, bridges, and walkovers. Mats are used along with close spotting to ensure dancers safety. Acro helps to develop flexibility, core strength, and balance and will benefit the dancer in other classes as well. We offer 3 different levels of acro at the studio, and classes are kept small so we are able to focus on each dancer and help them be successful in reaching their goals for the year.

Ballet

Being the basic foundation of dance, at Stages we highly encourage all students to take ballet. Ballet helps to assist in developing good posture, placement, alignment along with promoting the technique that is used in all other dance forms.

Lyrical

Lyrical is perfect for the dancer who is looking for a class that offers the grace of ballet with a modern flair of jazz. It combines the technical aspects learned in ballet, while using personal feelings and emotions. Lyrical helps dancers tell a story through movement and emotions. Students are encouraged to enroll ballet as well as lyrical.

Starglights

Our starlights combo classes if perfect for children entering into Pre-K or kindergarten. This class is also a great platform for the kids who are looking to join our competition team as well!!! Our only hour long combo class, dancers focus on tap, ballet, and beginner tumbling. The children continue to develop their coordination and memory skills and begin to have a greater understanding for the love of dance, while still having fun using their imagination through creative movements and activities. Class runs 60 min and children perform 2 dances in the recital- one tap and one ballet

Musical Theater

In this class, students learn how to express different emotions, while singing and dancing. Students listen to different types of music and talk about the emotions of the song and how they would be able to express those through movement. Students can use these skills in their other dance styles along with at school in any musicals or plays they may do. This class helps to build the students confidence for performing on stage as well!!

Tap

Working on rhythm and agility are the foundations of tap. Dancers work on different rhythms through both classic tap and modern “street” tap combinations. The rhythmic timing that is worked on in tap is also used in both jazz, hip hop and lyrical style of dance.

Hip Hop

Hip Hop focuses on “street dancing” to today’s most popular music. This style of dance focuses on both style and rhythm while incorporating modern urban movements in fun combinations. Hip Hop is a great way to get kids moving and help them to be more outgoing on the dance floor. Enrollment in a jazz class is recommended to take with this class.

Jazz

Jazz is an energetic style of dance that mixes classic jazz movements as well as modern dance trends. At Stages, we work with our dancers to improve flexibility and strengthen the technical skills of our dancers. Jumps, turns and combinations are also a large part jazz as well. Many students take both jazz and ballet simultaneously since it improves musical timing, precision and technique.

Tiny Tots

With a fun twist on dance, your child will learn about ballet, tap and beginner tumbling mixed with fun creative movement. Imaginative movement is explored through fun games and activities during the dance class. Class runs 45 min and the children perform one tap dance in the recital.
