On Stage School of Dance

*Pre-requisite Requires teacher recommendation and class placement

A form of classical ballet performed on the toes. Teacher recommendation required.

This 45 minute class will focus on technique while sharpening specific skills of leaps and turns.

This class is for the differently-abled dancer. Every child has their own unique talents, and this is their chance to shine!

This class will help to improve the student's flexibility, tumbling and acrobatic skills. Beginner students will focus on basics, such as cartwheels & splits, advance students will work on skills at their level such as aerials and handsprings.

Our intermediate and advanced students have a variety of options for classes including lyrical, jazz, tap, hip hop, classical ballet and more.

Does your child love to sing, dance and act? Then this is the class for them. This class will focus on vocal training, dance technique and acting in a fun and informative atmosphere. Scenes from kid friendly plays such as Annie and the Sound of Music will be incorporated. The class will be 45 minutes long each week. This class will perform in our spring recital to showcase their triple threat talents!

Hip hop classes are offered for students ages 5 & up. These fun, upbeat classes allow students to learn current moves shown in videos and on television.

Liturgical classes will feature movement and expression to contemporary Christian music. Prayer, praise and devotion will be incorporated in each class.

For the dancer who wants to take the next step in ballet education. A more rigorous ballet class that focuses on body placement and technique.

We offer a team experience for students in the fifth grade or higher. These students meet twice a week to study tap and jazz. In addition, they are required to attend a classical ballet class each week. Students compete in at least two competitions per year in addition to several exhibition performances. In order to become a team member teacher recommendation is required. Students must maintain appropriate conduct, class participation and attendance. Auditions are required only for the elite team.

We offer lyrical, jazz, and tap for adult students. Our adults enjoy the socialization while learning to dance and obtaining an effective workout.

Students age 9 and over are grouped by age and/or ability. Students have the options of ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, hip hop, and pointe. We are careful not to introduce Pointe until the student's age, development and level of proficiency are ready for this complex discipline. Classical ballet classes are offered for the more serious student.

This hour long combination of ballet, tap and jazz continues to strengthen ballet and tap technique while introducing students to basic jazz movements. We strive to provide a mix of popular hip hop moves with traditional classical jazz. All music and costumes are chosen carefully for age appropriateness.

This 45 minute class is a combination of ballet and tap. Ballet is taught using the Checchetti method. Children are introduced to the barre and appropriate exercises as well as movements across the floor. Classical and pop music is used as accompaniment. Strict turn out is not advocated until the child's bones and muscles are more developed. Tap is taught using upbeat music. Correct terminology is used throughout class.

Our preschool, 3 & 4 year old, program is a 45 minute combination of pre-ballet, tap and tumbling incorporating fun sing-a-long songs with dance while focusing on gross motor development and group activities. It is our belief that a child's first experience with dance should be fun, positive and rewarding, fostering the basis for a lifetime love of dance.

This 30 minute Introduction to Dance program combines creative movement and tumbling concentrating on large motor skills while exposing each child to various dance movements with fun sing-a-long songs. It allows the child expression and movement in fun group oriented activities. We ask that a parent or guardian stay in class in case their child needs assistance.
