PRODUCTION / COMPANY

All Students Grades 5+ Welcome A company or production dance is a performance that expresses a story with similar qualities to a musical or theatrical experience. Dancers in a production can be expected to embody their character/roles and connect emotionally with the choreography and story, not just focus on technical execution of the dance steps. Dancers can also anticipate to work alongside various skill levels and age groups in the company production and oftentimes get to work with multiple choreographers, costume stylists and stage managers.

TECHNIQUE

All Students Grades 7+ Welcome *Required for Show Stoppers, Pre-Pointe & Pointe Dancers* Technique allows students to improve the depth of their dance skills and knowledge of their bodies. A once weekly technique class in addition to a student's other classes can also help students improve body condition & recovery! The class focuses on deep core awareness, proper joint mobilization, rest & recovery and overall health & athletic performance. Flexibility & strength become more prevalent in turns, leaps & complex choreography. We want our dancers to be confidence in their bodies & abilities! "A good technique class should bring the dancers' body back into balance." -Dolly Kelepecz

Pre-Pointe & Pointe Class

The use of pointe shoes is an extension of traditional ballet technique. Because of the strength required, dancers must be taking at least two dance classes per week (at least 1 Ballet class) to be considered for pointe training. Students ages 12+ are continually being evaluated by their teacher to determine if they are ready to begin pointe. When their teacher feels a student is ready, they receive an invitation to join HDE's Summer Pre-Pointe Training program. In order to be considered, a dancer must be physically and mentally developed and their training continues beyond the pointe class into technique & their combo level classes. Pointe & Pre-Pointe classes are usually 30-45 minutes in length and typically always follow a Ballet or Technique class.

LEVEL 3 CLASSES

Ballet, Modern, Lyrical, Tap, Jazz &/or Hip Hop As a student progresses on their dance journey, they are enrolled in Level 3 classes which are designed for students who have graduated out of the Level 1 and 2 Combo Classes. The culmination of their years of dance training along with improved body awareness, efficiency of movement and comprehension propel our dancers into furthering their creativity and self-expression through movement and performance. Once the fundamentals of dance and movement are in place, dancers work on more complex concepts, strengthen their technique & develop more skills in their given genre. Students in Level 3 classes could expect to see more difficult combinations and choreography. Dancers are also challenged to seek their highest potential as athletes, artists and performers! Students are able to select from certain styles of dance and may even sign up for more than one section (depending on space available). Placement in the Level 3 classes is determined by the instructors according to skill level, age, years of dance training, along with other considerations for the student in order for them to be successful in the class. Classes are 60 Minutes in length.

COMBO LEVEL 2

Combo Classes That Include : Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Modern, Lyrical &/or Hip Hop Combo Level 2 Classes are also 60 minutes in length. Ballet & Jazz still being the primary focus but more emphasis is placed on building their skill and understanding in Tap, Modern/Lyrical & Hip Hop. Placement in the Combo Level 2 class is determined by the instructors according to age, skill level, years in dance, and needs of the student in order to be successful. Students may be able to sign up for more than one section (based on demand and space available).

COMBO LEVEL 1

Combo Classes That Include : Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Modern, &/or Lyrical Combo Level 1 Classes are 60 minutes in length.
