Class Descriptions

We are currently enrolling for our Winter/Spring Session, which begins Saturday, February 20th. Jazz Classes for various age groups (K through 2nd grade, 3rd through 6th, teens, and adults) are offered in this session, as well as Basic Movement for Preschoolers.

JAZZ CLASS:
Jazz dance is the most common type of dance you see on TV, such as performances in awards shows, music videos, and dance shows. The 45-minute jazz classes in our Winter/Spring Session will focus on classic jazz steps and technique, although some street jazz will also be introduced. All our jazz classes begin with a warm-up/stretch geared to the age level of the group, followed by center floor work and progressions across the floor utilizing jazz technique and steps. Depending on the level, jazz kicks, leaps, and turns are incorporated into class. Most of the music used in class is current pop songs you may hear played on the radio.

BASIC MOVEMENT CLASS:
Basic Movement for Preschoolers is a 30-minute class focusing on basic movement and dance skills to develop coordination, balance, musicality, timing, and flexibility. Beginning ballet technique is also introduced in this class and students are taught proper technique and basic vocabulary and even do some introductory barre work. Most of the music used in Basic Movement Class is fun, upbeat children’s music, although some great classical music is also incorporated. Even with students this young, we focus on proper technique and execution while having a great time moving to music.
