BALLET
Ballet is the foundation of all dance forms. It develops correct posture, coordination and teaches students discipline and poise. The technique learnt in Ballet is a valuable asset to any dance style. It is a great way of entering the world of dancing, that’s why we offer our classes for students from the age of two.
Dance with me (2-3 years old accompanied by an adult) - This class is specially designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of Ballet technique in a fun and nurturing environment.
Tiny Tots (3-5 years old) - These engaging classes are designed to assist the development of gross motor skills, coordination and musical awareness. Students will also benefit beyond dance, learning skills such as taking turns, following instructions and retaining basic choreography.
JAZZ
Jazz is a fun, high-energy class that enhances strength, flexibility and endurance. Classes include a cardio warm-up, stretching and strengthening exercise, travelling combinations and conclude with the learning of an upbeat routine.
* Students will achieve more out of their jazz class if they are also enrolled in ballet. The careful training in Ballet will enable students to excel in their jazz technique.
LYRICAL
Lyrical is an emotive style of dance that draws on both ballet and jazz techniques. It can also be described as a slower, more expressive form of jazz often performed to ballad style music.
*Like contemporary, Lyrical relies heavily on ballet technique therefore, students will progress in their Lyrical class if they are also taking a ballet class.
HIP-HOP
Born in the streets of New York in the 70s, Hip Hop took over dance studios of the world in the last few years. Part of a cultural movement that includes deejaying and graffiti, Hip-Hop dancing is a fusion that incorporates elements of popping, locking, breaking, ballet, jazz and tapping and is typically performed to hip-hop, R&B, funk or pop music.
