STYLES
OF DANCE:
Jazz
is derived from ballet, and then given parallel movements put to
a diverse selection of
appropriate music. Shoulder,
hip, and rib isolations provide more freedom in movement than
classical forms of dance but proper technique, muscle
development and discipline are still the foundation of jazz
dance training.
Hip
Hop is a street form of dance that is now being
offered in dance studios. Students
learn to hear beats and move with confidence to these rhythms.
They learn basic pop and lock and ground rock break
dancing and piece steps together for combinations (short
dances). All hip-hop
music and dance styles used are age and level appropriate.
Ballet
is a classical form of dance that includes training time at both
the barre and center floor.
This form of dance is based on technique and muscle
development while encouraging poise and discipline.
Tap
dancers primarily use their feet to create sounds and rhythms
that compliment the music. Tap
dancers focus on musicality and use their upper bodies to create
the visual aspect of dance to compliment the audio performance
of tap.
Pointe
is an advanced technique of ballet that is performed on the toes
in special shoes built for supporting the weight of a dancer.
This form of dance is for advanced dancers only and
teachers will invite dancers to the pre-pointe class once they
feel a dancer is ready for pointe work training.
Combo
is a class geared for younger dancers and provides them with
exposure to many different styles of dance.
Dancers try jazz, tap, and ballet in a combo class and
develop basic skills in these areas of dance.
Dancers are taught the proper discipline for dance class
and are given exercises that are valuable in their development
as children.
Tots
is a class for young children who are exposed to
creativity and movement. They
work on basic dance skills and are given the opportunity to
learn and play with music and movement.
