Fall 2026

A student's first dance class, introducing both ballet and tap. Dancers will alternate styles each week. One style will be used for the recital.

​

Classical dance form characterized by grace and precision of movement and by elaborate formal gestures, steps, and poses.

Ballet is the foundation of all other dance forms.

Emphasis on rhythm and coordination. Dancers wear shoes fitted with heel and toe taps to sound out audible beats by rhythmically striking the floor.

​

Stylized movements and combinations with an emphasis on proper technical execution, extension, control and body placement. Jazz may have many different styles and paces but it is a direct extension of ballet.

A fusion of ballet and jazz, encompassing the use of balance, flexibility and control while utilizing the lyrics or mood of the music. Students should have a strong ballet foundation before performing this style. 

Street style movements with an emphasis on style, creativity, body isolations and control. Students will work on rhythm and musical interpretation while incorporating athleticism.

Clean/precise arm movements and strong motion technique. This class also incorporates jazz skills and jumps, as students learn to use teamwork for synchronization and visual effect.

Theatrical style that may combine acting and spoken dialogue, or lip syncing. Jazz sklls are incorporated.
