Ballet is a very strict and technical dance form. It is the foundation to every style of dance. It has been around for generations, but it still remains the same! Students will learn terminology and execution of steps, as well as grace and elegance.

Lyrical/Contemporary is a fusion of ballet and jazz techniques. It focuses greatly on interpretation of the music and telling a story through movement. Expressing emotion is a very important part of this style.

Tap is a form of dance that is based on rhythms and sounds made by the feet. On the sole of each tap shoe there are two metal plates, one on both the toe and heel. Tap teaches and is influenced strongly by musicality. Students will learn terminology as well as execution of different steps.

Clogging is an old fashioned folk dance that has evolved into a fused more modern dance grouping that requires a lot of energy and fast footwork. The clogs, much like tap shoes, have metals plates on both the heel and toe. However, rather than only having one plate, they have two connecting together to make even more rhythms and sounds.

Pointe is where a ballet dancer supports all of their body weight on the tips of their toes. This is done by wearing a specific ballet shoe with a boxed toe. Pointe is based on age and recommendation from our ballet teacher.
