BALLET

Our Ballet students study and take examinations with the Society of Russian Ballet.  Exams typically take place in March and are designed to assess each student in terms of technique and presentation.

POINTE

This ballet class focuses on strengthening the legs and feet to prepare students to work en pointe. This class is for level 6 and higher.

JAZZ

Jazz is an energetic, physical, and up-tempo dance form. Classes are a combination of current dance trends and stage dance. The emphasis is on polish and technique, while improving flexibility.

TAP

The emphasis in tap classes is on correct rhythms and clarity of sound. Students are examined by PAEC when ready.

HIP HOP

Students will be introduced to various types of hip hop dance and movement and will participate in a year end performance in June.

TECHNIQUE

Our students take a technique class when they reach ITP level 2.  The technique class was created for students to work on flexibility, jumps and turns.  The class focuses primarily on jazz and ballet technique.

MODERN

Modern draws from many forms of dance, but emphasizes exploring the full range of movements the body can make. It uses the body as an expressive instrument moving in space.

CONTEMPORARY

Contemporary/Lyrical is one of the most common styles as seen on dance reality TV shows and a popular request among teens. A free movement style will be encouraged while learning basic terminology and technique.
