4 Page 5 Dance Techniques : The ABC s for any dancer. Students will develop grace, learn body placement, improve posture and build strength and coordination. We recommend taking ballet as it is a fundamental class to support all other dance styles. For advanced level dancers ballet is highly recommended, and required for advanced II/III level classes, at least once a week. Point: Pointe, part of classical ballet technique, is practiced using specifically reinforced shoes called pointe shoes. Pointe shoes allow dancers to appear weightless and to dance on their toes for an extended period of time. class is required twice a week to take pointe. : A popular from of dance which developed during the middle portion of the twentieth century and has since grown to become one of the dominating performance genres in the U.S. This class has freer movement than a ballet or jazz and the teacher will focus on building strength, flexibility, musicality and technique. Your child will learn new dance phrases and steps while exploring the emotion or mood of a song. Gymnastics/Tumbling: This class is high energy, fun and a great workout! The teacher will teach performance exercises requiring physical strength, flexibility, power, agility, coordination, grace, balance and control. : This is a high energy class where the teacher uses popular, and age appropriate music to teach the latest dance moves from this 21st century dance technique. Your child will learn to count music and memorize choreography while getting an incredible workout! Jazz/Jumps & Turns: Jazz is a technique where students learn the basics of moving through the use of fun songs from pop, contemporary and Broadway styles. Jazz is a technique that is ballet based but is high energy and fast paced!! The teacher will focus on technique, repetitive practice and proper execution of basic and more challenging jumps and turns. Modern: A dance style that centers on a dancer s own interpretation, in addition to structured steps and exercises. This form of dance expresses complex emotions and abstract ideas. Emphasis is placed on breath, skeletal alignment, joint articulation, ease of muscular tension and the use of gravity and momentum to facilitate movement. Tap: Tap is a great way to exercise the body and the mind! Your child will learn to create rhythmic patterns with their feet. Tap focuses on beat, timing, rhythm and coordination. Yoga: This class is a great way to improve health and relaxation! Yoga is the unison between body, mind and spirit, through breath and postures. Come discover more about YOU!
