Lyrical/Contemporary

Lyrical and Contemporary are similar forms of dance in that they both utilize a strong jazz and ballet background. Lyrical is performed to a song that has lyrics and uses the lyrics to inspire emotional movement. Contemporary incorporates modern dance and has become wildly popular in recent years. When performed, contemporary interprets the overall story or feeling from a piece of music or from the vision of its choreographer. Students must be enrolled in ballet while taking this class.

Jazz

Jazz has been defined as "stylized theatrical dancing" based on many other forms of dance and influenced by American jazz music. Jazz is the predominant form of dance used on Broadway. Jazz can sometimes be classified as free style, street dance, funk, rock or lyrical. It finds these classifications by the choice of music danced to. Each class will consist of a proper warm up, stretching, progressions across the floor, center work on turns, and fun combinations.

Tap

Tap dancing is a type of dance which demonstrates various movements made with rhythms by the feet. More so than other dance forms, Tap develops the exactness of rhythm and timing, the ability to think fast and the coordination of the mind and body. Tap has a very relaxed feel which makes it fun! Each class will consist of musicality exercises, technique, and improvisation. We don't make noise, we make music with our feet!

Ballet

Ballet is the foundation for all forms of dance. The American form of ballet is a combination of the French, Russian and Italian schools of ballet. Students will learn classical ballet technique and French terminology. Standard exercises are taught at the barre to develop skills for more advanced steps to be performed in the center. Each class is comprised of barre exercises, center stretching, allegro and adagio (quick and slow) combinations, as well as leaps and turns.
