Your dancer will learn grace, poise, balance, strength, terminology and discipline by working at the barre and taking part in floor work. Ballet is key in increasing flexibility and concentration, both of which are critical to dance and overall fitness.Lyrical (ages 6 & up) Lyrical combines the grace of Ballet with the strength and style of Jazz to tell a story through movement and song.

This class will help with flexibility, balance and strength with stretching in the beginning to progressions across the floor. Students will then learn to put them all together in a combination.Pointe NOTE: Must have previously had ballet, have teacher approval and doctors note in order to participate.Pointe is a continuation for serious Ballet dancers.

They will also learn musicality, timing and tempo.Rhythm Tap (ages 6 & Up)Rhythm Tap takes tap to the next level. Students will learn the basics and turn them into something more than a step. They will use their increasing understanding of musicality, timing, and tempo to create art. Using music, sound, and movement they will learn how to make their feet sing a song.HipHop (ages 6 & up)Technihop is the MTV of all dance classes.
