BALLET: Ballet is a type of theatrical dancing having a definite technique. There are five different Ballet Schools: Russian, French, Cecchetti, British, and American. Your child will be exposed to steps from each of these schools; however, we mostly use the Cecchetti and French Schools. Ballet is the basis for all dance forms and should be taken to achieve the greatest benefit in other classes. (30 min. Class - 3+ years) (45 min. Class - teens-adults)
PRE-POINTE: This is a summer class. A child must be at least 11 years of age (by September 1st of the year they would start Pointe) and have 3 consecutive years of ballet. This class is taken in ballet slippers and the student is given invaluable work for strengthening ankles, increasing arch in foot, and "centering" (a must to be able to go en pointe'). (30 min. Class - 11+ years)
POINTE: Ballet performed in Pointe shoes. The student is required to take ballet separate from this class. (30 min. Class - 11+ years)
JAZZ: Jazz dance is the one form of dance that is constantly changing. It is a type of theatrical dancing used in our present-day stage, television, and movie musicals. It has its own technique and form of movement stemming from many other forms of dance such as ballet, tap, modern, and ethnic. (30 min class - 8+ years) (45 min class - teens and adults)
MODERN: A style of theatrical dancing that is not as restrictive as ballet; movements are expressive of feelings. (30 min class - teens and adults)
LYRICAL: A form of dance that expresses deep personal emotion or observations, ballet based. (30 min. class - 7+ years)
HIP-HOP/JAZZ: A dance of great control using all parts of the body from head to feet. Hip Hop/Jazz is a class provided for the young dancer that wants the fun of hip hop but needs the benefit of technique received in jazz. (30 min. class - 5-7 years)
HIP-HOP: Mainly street-style dance. It is the "new school" dance form of break dance and funk and is influenced by modern culture and music. (30 min class - 8 yrs - Teen)
HIP-HOP BOYS: Same description but geared towards boys instead of girls. Also can include popping exaggerated body and joint movements and possibly some form of break dancing. (30 min class - 8+ years)
HIP-HOP ADULT: Same moves (when our bodies will allow). This class is a great deal of fun, not to mention the benefit of exercise. (30 min class - 21+ years, exceptions made at teacher's discretion)
COMPETITION TEAM: Any form of dance. Teams will depend on the teachers. The students are put on specific teams according to the teachers' advisement. These teams spend a great deal of time practicing. Student must also take the class as well as their time at team. This commitment is not to be taken without a great deal of thought. Tryouts are typically early summer. This is a lot of fun for the students, however, a lot of hard work. If interested, please check appropriate box on registration form. (times vary - 8+ years)
ACROBATICS: Acrobatic dancing is composed of balance, contortion, or aerial tricks, combined with any form of dance (ballet, jazz, modern) and set to music. It will provide self-confidence, balance, flexibility, and meuor-muscular coordination, strength and endurance. It is sometimes described as "gymnastics floor with other forms of dance." (45 min Class - 4+ years)
ACRO/POM: Class uses the same format as above but with pom poms for a fun effect as recital nears. Student learns how to hold pom poms and have control with their arms. (45 min class - 7+ years)
BATON: Twirling...students, if ready, will perform in Christmas parade.
MUSICAL THEATER: Students will work on stage presence, do short skits, act, sing and dance. Students will have a skit they will perform in recital.
TAP: A style of dance in which students wear shoes with metal toe and heel taps. They use their feet to make sounds in rhythmic patterns.
CREATIVE MOVEMENT: Ages 2 - 3...girls or boys. Students learn about special awareness, learning to follow instructions in a group setting, motor skills, and much more. A great start for little ones and always lots of fun.
