The class time is divided in half with part ballet and part of tap. The classroom environment becomes more structured with Ballet/Tap and introduces the foundation of all forms of dance.
Ballet

Tap/Jazz/Lyrical
For age 6 and up: This class exposes the dancer to three different forms of dance. A portion of class is spent in jazz, an exciting form of dance that develops technique, coordination, and strength through warm-up, isolation, progressions and combinations. Some class time is spent on lyrical, an emotionally expressive form of dance, which uses the lyrics of the music to influence the movement of the body. Finally tap, progressions and rhythmical combination of tap sound coinciding to music. The most rhythmic of all dance forms. Students explore technique in more depth, as well as various dance styles and strong musicality.
Theater Dance
This class incorporates music and movement from the Broadway stages of yesterday and today. Working on jazz styles influenced by the great theater and musical choreographers of our times.
