Rhythm & Rhymes
Age: 3 year olds
This is the class for our youngest dancers - the 3 year olds. This class consists of basic coordination skills, singing and creative movement all incorporated with music. No technical ballet is taught at this age because the young dancer's body is not yet developed for strict training. (30 minute class)
Elementary Tap & Ballet
Grades: 1st & 2nd
Parents really begin to see the reasons for pre-school classes at this age. Our dancer makes a big transition from pre-school "baby work" to a more advanced level of tap & ballet. The classes are more disciplined & dance structured. The dance education is more challenging. (1 hour class)
Hip Hop
Grades: 3rd & up
A high impact class combining fun & energetic moves mixed with up-tempo music! Consists of freestyle dance with quick choreography. (45 minutes)
Pre-School Tap & Ballet
Grades: Pre-K & K
Many coordination, rhythm & balance skills are taught which give a great foundation for a technical dance education. We introduce pre-ballet and pre-tap skills in a very fun atmosphere. All of our pre-schoolers enjoy many exercise games, finger plays, and fun songs that help produce a love of dance. (1 hour class)
Combo Tap, Ballet
& Jazz
Grades: 3rd - 8th
These dancers are involved in serious dance instruction in the areas of all ballet, tap and jazz work. The class is held in a strict, disciplined atmosphere which consists of stretching, barre, center floor, across the floor, and much technical work.
(90 minute class)
Contemporary
Grades: 6th & up
A class focusing on using total body movement & creative freedom to express emotions through dance. (45 minutes)
Pre-
Jazz
Grades: K, 1st & 2nd
Dancers must be enrolled in regular tap & ballet class to learn the fundamentals of dance which is needed for this pre-jazz class. This class is optional. Pre-jazz gives those dance-minded younger dancers the opportunity to take another class each week. These dancers will dance to more up-beat music. (30 minute class)

For the serious ballet student. She must be at least 12 years old, sometimes older, depending on her ballet education, maturity & self-discipline, strength and ability. Qualification are individualized. We encourage every qualified dancer to try for at least a year for the experience. (30 minutes)
