Ballet

Whether you are a beginner looking to build a solid foundation or a continuing student refining your technique, these classes offer progressive training that balances technical precision with the joy of movement.

Contemporary

Contemporary dance blends elements of ballet, modern, and jazz techniques to create a highly expressive and fluid style. Classes focus on movement quality, musicality, floor work, and improvisation.

Jazz

Jazz dance is a lively and energetic style that blends sharp moves, smooth steps, and rhythm. Dancers will build strength, flexibility, and coordination while learning fun combinations set to upbeat music.

Musical Theater

Musical Theater dance brings the excitement of Broadway to the studio! This class combines jazz dance technique with acting and performance skills to help students tell a story through movement.

Tap

Tap is a lively and rhythmic dance style where the feet become percussive instruments. Dancers will learn fundamental tap steps, timing, and musicality while developing coordination, balance, and performance skills.

Acro-Tumbling

Acro-Tumbling combines the strength and agility of gymnastics with the flexibility and fluidity of dance. In this class, students will learn skills such as rolls, cartwheels, walkovers, handsprings, and aerials, progressing safely at their own level.
