Dance
Ballet
This classical style of dance teaches grace through movement, and strength through poise. We help our students develop technique, flexibility, body awareness, and discipline – in a very fun and dynamic way.
Hip-Hop
In today’s culture, hip hop is easily one of the most publicized and well-known forms of dance. Our classes expose students to different forms of Hip-Hop, teaching them how to dance to the beat of the music, how to strengthen coordination, how to work as a team, and how to take direction.
Ballroom
Ever heard of the Tango? The Waltz? How about the Cha Cha? These are some of the dances belonging to the amazing world of Ballroom. Our students learn about technique, precision, form, and most of all… passion and heart. Learn from the best and explore just how fun Ballroom really is.
