Ballet is truly the foundation of all dance. It teaches self discipline, correct body placement, strength, and gracefulness.  It is a popular class that provides the necessary base for any training. 

 

Classes start for boys and girls at tiny tots level (3yrs) and continue on to Majors.

MODERN (ISTD)

Modern Jazz has become one of the most popular dance styles in recent years, mainly due to its popularity on television shows, movies, music videos, London Shows and commercials. People enjoy watching jazz dancers, as the dancing is fun and energetic.  It has a strong technical base and high performance levels. 
Classes start at Primary level and continue to Majors.

TAP (ISTD)

Tap is an exciting form of dance in which dancers wear special shoes equipped with metal taps. Tap dancers use their feet like drums to create rhythmic patterns, a percussive sound and timely beats and as such the dancers are considered to be, somewhat, musicians. The term "tap dancing" is derived from the tapping sound produced when the small metal plates on the dancer's shoes touch a hard floor or surface. 

The goal in tap dancing is to produce clear, clean sounds, with various levels of tone. Body weight should be held slightly forward, allowing most of the dancing to be done on the balls of the feet. The knees and ankles should be relaxed at all times.

Ever popular with boys and girls from Primary to Majors.

ACRO

 Acro dance is a style that combines classical dance technique with acrobatic elements. It is defined by its athletic character, its unique choreography, which seamlessly blends dance and acrobatics, and its use of acrobatics in a dance context.  It is a popular dance style in amateur as well as professional dance theatre, such as Cirque De Soleil. 

Acro is an especially challenging dance style for dancers as it requires them to be trained in both dance and acrobatic skills. Acro dancers must be in excellent physical condition as well, because acro is a physically demanding activity.

A class focusing on strengthening, flexibility and limbering.  The students also get to practice and perfect gymnastic style tricks with support to hand.  Suitable for boys and girls of all ages and abilities.

LYRICAL

Lyrical dance is a dance style that blends ballet and jazz dance. Lyrical is generally smoother and a bit faster than ballet, but not quite as fast as jazz. A lyrical dancer uses movement to express strong emotions such as love, joy and anger.  Movements in lyrical dance are characterized by fluidity and grace, with the dancer flowing seamlessly from one move to another, holding finishing steps as long as possible. Leaps are exceptionally high and soaring, and turns are fluid and continuous.
