Creative Dance classes are concept-based with a focus on natural movement as well as an introduction to the principals of dance along with tumbling. It is a wonderful opportunity for young girls and boys to develop motor skills, technique, musicality, body awareness, concentration and focus, to express feelings and ideas, and most of all have fun with dance!
Creative Movement (3-4 yrs.) & Creative Dance (5-6 yrs.)
This combination class will allow young dancers to experience two dance styles in an upbeat atmosphere. Learn the grace and terminology of ballet, while stomping out rhythm and timing of tap and learning flexibility with tumbling. Emphasis is placed on teaching proper technique, while encouraging students to be comfortable with themselves and work in a group. Students will also learn dance class etiquette.
Ballet
Ballet is the technical foundation of all forms of dance. Dancers will continue to understand the discipline of ballet as an art form, and learn grace and poise through barre exercises, turns, and choreography. Emphasis is placed on proper technique, poise, flexibility, strength and posture. Students will also learn dance class etiquette.
Jazz
Dancers will continue to build on jazz basics while learning more about the many styles of jazz. Emphasis will be placed on muscle isolations, balance, turns, body coordination, flexibility and choreography.
Contemporary Jazz
Contemporary dance is a style of expressive dance that combines elements of several dance genres including modern, jazz, lyrical and classical ballet. Contemporary dancers strive to connect the mind and the body through fluid dance movements.
Tap
This upbeat, high energy class combines rhythm of basic tap steps, balance, and weight transfers to create fun dance combinations. The tap dancer will use their feet to create rhythmic patterns and timely beats.
Hip-Hop
This class is an edgy jazz class that combines rhythm, coordination, quickness, urban/street and pop style choreography. Attitude and confidence are just as important as the technique. Hip hop is a very energetic form of dancing. It is unique in that it allows its dancers to perform with freedom of movement, adding in their own personalities
