Class Descriptions

 

Hip Hop and Breakdance

It's the main language of the youth culture around the world - urban,

energetic, powerful and creative.

 

Tap

It's making a comeback - that rhythmic, toe-tapping that is fun and engaging.

We'll begin with the basics and go from there. Tap shoes will be required.

 

Jazz

Get yourself kicking, turning and jumping - this class will focus on the basics

of jazz technique.

 

Ballet

One of the most essential basics to good dance training. Choose the level that

best suits your current ballet background.

 

Intro to Dance

These intro classes offer a little bit of every style of dance to get our youngest

dancers started. There will be less of an emphasis on technique in order to

foster freedom of expression, fun and creativity.

 

Contemporary Dance

This dance form is constantly transformed with each choreography - its

foundations are ballet and modern dance technique, but the end result is as

creatively eclectic as its dancers.

 

Creative Dance

These creative movement classes are designed to create spontaneous

movement from the heart of the dancer - for worship or just to get moving to

music; technique will be less emphasized. There will be a spiritual component

to this class.

 

Zumba

This is one of the most popular new exercise/dance forms especially for

adults and young adults. It is a hybrid of salsa-style steps and rhythmic

exercise. You've never had so much fun getting into shape.

 

Stretch and Strength

These foundational body strengthening classes are for dancers and non-

dancers alike. A healthy combination of Pilates and flexibility exercises that

are important for strengthening the whole body, especially core muscles.

 

Kids on Stage

This class is specifically designed for those who love to be on stage. We will

help to facilitate confidence in projecting vocally for speaking, singing or

acting. The classes will have a bit of a musical theatre flavour and will

emphasize creative activities that will foster improvisational skills and

character development.
