Selinsgrove Dance Studio

Adult Classes are ideal for beginners and/or former dancers wanting to return to their passion and those looking to use dance-based fitness as a way to achieve a healthy lifestyle.

This Team is by "INVITATION ONLY." Due to the nature of competition dance, certain criteria must be met in class in order to be offered an invite to the team.

An added hour of ballet to the schedule. Ballet is a wonderful way to inspire students’ love for dance while promoting muscular strength, proper body alignment, flexibility, and lyrical musicality. Dancers must commit to continuing their dance education in the summer while in this program. Their training must remain consistent in order to maintain their level of training. Workshops are available to these students with guest teachers “in house” and “out.” Pointe work is added at teacher’s discretion.

Jazz incorporates foundations of proper body alignment, technique, flexibility, and jazz dance vocabulary with an upbeat rhythm-based style.

Ballet, Tap and Tumbling. Tap is a style of dance in which dancers create audible beats by rhythmically striking the floor. Tap dancing promotes mental focus and increases memory, balance, and posture. And…it is FUN!

This class is designed to introduce our young dancers to the fundamentals of Creative Movement/Ballet, Tap and Tumbling. Emphasis is placed on flexibility, strength, motor skill development and basic rhythm providing an excellent foundation for further development. SDS is committed to teaching dance in a positive way that encourages your child's creativity while in a structured and fun atmosphere. We want our students to embrace dance as a joyful experience. Creative dance movements, games, props and age appropriate music are a few of the methods used to encourage physical awareness and creative expression. Children must be toilet trained, no pull-ups or diapers.

Students will engage in hands-on movement activities essential to proper development in coordination, recognizing music and rhythms, counting and timing, and self-confidence. Students learn to stretch and dance using props such as scarves, rhythm sticks, shaker eggs, bean bags and ribbon sticks. (4 week sessions.)
