Contemporary dance stresses versatility and improvisation. Contemporary dance can be performed to many different styles of music.
  • Lyrical Dance: Combine ballet and jazz techniques while emphasizing emotions.
  • Jazz: Energetic and syncopated, set to popular music.
  • Hip Hop and Jazz Funk: When you listen to hip-hop music, it’s hard to do anything but dance. Dancing to hip-hop is so much fun, but from a technical standpoint, it takes a lot of skill, practice, and talent. We offer a number of hip-hop classes for dancers of all abilities to enjoy. From newbie hip-hop to junior classes, to more advanced courses, today is the perfect day for you to register for a hip-hop dance class.

Our experienced instructors create a nurturing environment where young dancers can thrive. Whether your child is just starting out or looking to refine their skills, our classes provide the perfect balance of fun and learning.

We have a Studio Dance Program, not Recreational dance, meaning we value our studio dancers, everyone gets the same high level dance training and fun, no one is more valuable.

Tap Dance

Tap is one of the oldest styles of dance and is fundamental in any dancer. Tap helps a dancer establish rhythm and it brings a connection from your head all the way down to your toes. If you’ve ever tapped your foot to your favorite song, there is a tapper in you!

Contemporary

Expressive dance that combines elements of several dance genres including modern jazz, lyrical and classical ballet.   Connection of the mind and the body through fluid dance movements. Contemporary dance stresses versatility and improvisation. Contemporary dance can be performed to many different styles of music.

Lyrical

A combination of ballet and jazz, lyrical dance is at a tempo right in between — a bit faster than ballet, and a bit slower than jazz. The technique in lyrical focuses on creating beautiful lines, through thinking about leg positioning and the overall picture of a dancer while they’re performing. In this class, instructors from our dance studio teach proper technique and movement, as well as train in the art of performance.
