Littlest Love Combo (ages 3-4): For our littlest dancers we offer 45 minute combo classes. These dancers will explore creative movement and self-expression, while learning the beginning fundamentals of ballet. These dancers will also be introduced to beginning tap as well as have exposure to the upbeat movement that jazz offers. These dancers will perform a minimum of three dances at our recital: one for ballet/jazz, one to showcase tap, and our opening or closing number. These dancers will have ONE costume for all three routines.
Starlette (ages 5-6/7) Combo Classes: Combo classes are offered to dancers ages 5-7. These dancers will study jazz and tap while continuing to further their understanding of ballet technique during this 60 minute class.

Ballet: Ballet is the foundation of dance. Our ballet classes will consist of barre work as well as floor work that focuses on technique and the fundamentals of dance. Dancers will be placed in ballet classes according to age/experience.
Pointe: Pointe will be by invitation only based on teacher recommendation of ballet technique as well as strength in the legs and ankles. Dancers will learn beginning technique of pointe. Dancers will need to be fit for pointe shoes before the start of the dance year. Lyrical/Contemporary: Lyrical and contemporary classes will be offered for students age 8+. Lyrical dance is best described as 'emotion in motion,' where a story of the lyrics is told through movement. Ballet is required for our level II and above lyrical dancers. Jazz: Jazz classes are offered for students ages 8+. Jazz is an upbeat, fresh, funky, and FUN style of dance! Ballet is not required, but is highly recommended. |
Tap: Tap classes are offered for students ages 8+. Tap exposes dancers to complex rhythm and movement as well as footwork. This upbeat class is one of Miss Meg's favorites!
Hip Hop: Hip Hop classes are offered to dancers ages 6+. Hip hop is an upbeat class focusing on sharp movements, isolation, footwork, and rhythm. This free-flowing, free-styling form of dance is based off of traditional hip hop technique fused with street style. Don't fret, we keep our hip hop music VERY clean. |
Acro: Acro, short for acrobatics, is a floor-based class where dancers focus on flexibility, and many tricks/elements found in the floor portion of gymnastics, ie: cartwheels, handstands, walkovers, flips, and more. Acro is a great way to up-level your performance, as skills acquired in acro classes are often infused into choreography for other styles of dance. No previous experience is required.
Solo and Duo/Trio Classes: Individualized instruction with a teacher. Solos/duos/trios will be by invitation only: however, dancers should let their teacher know if they are interested. Ballet will be required to any dancer taking a solo class. These classes may be half year classes. Adult Classes: Adult classes are a great way to stay active while having FUN! These classes are offered in various styles. See below. |
