We offer a wide range of dance styles.

Pre-Dance/Acro

Pre-Dance is our intro to dance class, available to students ages 2-4.

In this fun and creative class, dancers are introduced to ballet and jazz, as well as classroom etiquette, while developing patience, listening skills, and independence. 

Ballet

Ballet is the foundation of dance technique and is carried over to most other dance styles. From beginner to advanced classes, students are formally trained while being taught the value of technique, discipline, and honouring tradition. Ballet improves strength, agility, flexibility, and balance, all while increasing the students' focus and body awareness.  Students are taught to use proper posture, poise, and to present themselves in a graceful manner.

Students ages 5 and up. ​

Jazz

Jazz dance tends to be a faster-paced dance form. It is a great way to improve coordination and cardiovascular health.  Jazz dancers complete warm-up and stretching exercises before working on skills such as leaps, turns, kicks, and jumps.  Jazz is a fun, upbeat class including technique and creativity, all while increasing flexibility, strength and musicality.

Available for dancers age 5 and up.

Hip Hop

This style incorporates street jazz, breaking, pop & lock, and step, with deep African roots.  It is a  high-energy dance experience that is fun for dancers ages 5 and up!

Tap Dance

In this upbeat style, dancers are given exposure to both classical tap dancing and progressive tap choreography. By using the sounds of taps striking the floor, dancers learn the art of percussion as well as dancing. 

For students ages 5 and up. 

Acro

Acro is a combination of dance, acrobatics, and gymnastics. This style focuses on concentration, balance, flexibility, control, and self-esteem. Dancers work on a variety of tricks such as head stands, bridges, cartwheels, and more.

Ages 4 and up.

Contemporary

This style teaches dancers technique while expressing themselves through innovative choreography. Dancers are given the opportunity to find their own style. Contemporary combines all styles of dance to allow for a creative and improvisational movement. Dancers will enhance their creativity and self-expression.

Dancers ages 12 and up.

Lyrical

Lyrical dance is a style that blends elements of ballet and jazz dance. Lyrical is generally a little more fluid than ballet and also somewhat faster, although not as rapidly executed as jazz dance. This style is also somewhat smoother and a bit faster than ballet, but not quite as fast as jazz. Available for dancers 9 and up. 

Musical Theatre

Want be a triple threat? Musical theater dance is the study of Broadway dance and dance styles. It allows the students to get the chance to act, sing and dance at the same time! Learn choreography from selected musicals, such as “High School Musical”, “Hair Spray”, “Glee”, “Legally Blonde”, and many more.

For students ages 8 and up.
