- Teen/Senior classes are Ages 12 - 18 years old
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!
Ballet
Ballet is a fun, beautiful, and disciplined dance style that many people grow to love. Whether your child is young and new to the dance or has been practicing ballet for years, we have a class that will be perfect for them! We offer our ballet classes for children from five years old to Adult age.
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.
Dance Classes for 12 to 18 Age Groups
At KIO Dance Studio, we offer a variety of dance classes tailored for 12 to 18 years of age groups.
- Tap Dance: Create rhythmic sounds with your tap shoes in this lively class.
- Ballet: Learn graceful movements, precise technique, and beautiful lines.
- Contemporary Dance: 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 Dance: Combine ballet and jazz techniques while emphasizing emotions.
- Tumbling/Acro: Focus on gymnastics skills like flips, cartwheels, and handstands.
- Jazz Dance: Energetic and syncopated, set to popular music.
- Jazz Funk: Infuse traditional jazz with urban and hip-hop styles.
- Hip Hop: 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.
