Tap is all about rhythm - feeling, and creating rhythmic sound through articulation in the ankles and feet. Core strength and agility facilitate constant weight shifting and, at times, a feeling of suspension, allowing the feet to make sound. Anyone can learn to tap dance. Begin with the basics and build. It is satisfying and fun. If you’ve ever been tempted, now is the time to try.

Currently, Modern dance holds all of this history and continues to evolve. Many people consider work being created now to fall into the genre of contemporary dance. More and more choreographers use theatrical elements in their work, choreograph conceptual dances, and make site-specific works. Each evolution stands on the shoulders of those that came before.

At CD&FS, we honor the roots of jazz while embracing its evolution, creating space for both historical appreciation and fresh, creative expression. Authentic jazz dance is deeply rooted in African dance traditions, developed and transformed by enslaved Africans in America, and further liberated and expanded by African Americans after emancipation. It is characterized by distinct kinetic qualities such as inclined torsos, sharp angles, grounded steps with flat feet, and isolated movements of individual body parts.

At CD&FS, our Hip Hop program honors the rich legacy and cultural roots of hip hop by exploring a wide range of street and club styles. These include, but are not limited to, old school, house, locking, popping, vogueing, litefeet, dancehall, boogaloo, lofting, and King Tut. In class, dancers will build a strong foundation through grooves and technique, then grow their own unique movement voices through improvisation, freestyle, and cyphers. Throughout the year, we’ll engage with choreography that samples a variety of styles and supports creative expression.

At Contemporary Dance and Fitness Studio, we embrace a Neo-Classical approach to ballet, drawing inspiration from both Russian and Balanchine techniques.
