Combo - is an age specific, 60 minute class for children ages 6-8. Twenty minutes each of ballet, tap, and jazz, give the children a fantastic base and exposure to different types of dance. We have found that this "combination" technique helps to keep the kids excited, interested, and focused for the entire 60 minute period.

Ballet Program Overview

Jazz Dance: Combines many styles and techniques from ethnic and contemporary dance to ballet. Rhythm, upon which all dance forms depend, is particularly integral to jazz dance. The first half of class consists of exercises to stretch and tone muscles and develop support for proper stress-free alignment of the skeletal structure. Using jazz, soul, R&B, ethnic and pop music,jazz classes are a great work-out and a fun way to release tension while attaining a body awareness that can be applied to everyday activities.

Tap Dance: Is an exciting rhythmic exercise and dance form which is enjoyable to both kids and adults. Rooted in African-American History, tap offers a variety of styles and techniques. Students will realize results in dance movement after a minimum of classes. The classes stress the basics of tap and build into combinations which are great to watch and delightful to hear. Try tap for fun and fitness.
