Preschool Dance Program (Kindergarten Dance)
Ages 3 - 5 . Our Preschool Class is an introduction to
dance in ballet and tap. The primary goal is to foster a love
of movement. The creative component is quite large. Several
fun or special activities happen in each class. Taking part
in dancing out a narrative helps children to understand that
dancing is expression. It is a means of communicating feelings
and actions. The vocabulary covered are all steps which a 3 year
old can master and they build self-confidence. Class length is
45 minutes, 1 time per week.
Hip Hop
Hip
Hop I-II
This beginner program allows student to take the 2 most popular
forms of dance in one class. The Hip Hop I-II class teaches fundamental
jazz steps and combines the element of hip hop moves and contemporary
music. We have found that the combination of jazz and hip hop
is ideal for this age. Students learn the necessary elements
of jazz which are crucial to success in hip hop, but also get
to learn hip hop moves which require the coordination and balance
learned from jazz. When students complete this class they are
ready to progress to the next level which introduces more complex
moves and routines. Class length is 45 minutes, 1 time per week.
Hip Hop III
These are introductory hip hop classes for 9-12 year old and 13-17
year old students that are just starting hip hop. The 9-12 year
old or teen students are developed and coordinated enough to learn
the hip hop moves and routines without any jazz training or background.
Class length is 45 minutes, 1 time per week.
Combination Classes
In this introductory class students learn the tap and ballet
fundamentals and work on a routine for the year end show. Classes
are set up for ages 5-6 years, 7-10 years, and teen classes.
Class length is 45 minutes, 1 time per week.
Adult Classes
Ladies Jazz & Tap
Ages 18 & up. Students in our adult classes learn moves and

needs of adult students and approach the class differently from
