Our Elementary Dance Program is designed for dancers that are of the kindergarten through 2nd grade age group. The coordination and attention of school age children allows for a more concentrated class. Students in this division will explore ballet, tap and jazz/hip hop combination classes.
Dance Combo 1 (Kindergarten; 75 minutes) Designed especially for the attention span of dancers this age. This upbeat class is an excellent way to build a solid dance foundation as well as explore dance and music in a fun atmosphere. Dance terminology, technical development and musicality are the main focus in this class. All exercises and music selections are age and skill appropriate.
Dance Combo 2 (1st & 2nd; 90 minutes) This well rounded course concentrates on stretching and strengthening exercises and develops creative expression through age appropriate skills. Emphasis is on placement of the body, posture and stance. Self discipline, etiquette, floor layout, beginning terminology and basic barre work will be taught. Student’s ballet terminology will continue to expand. More complicated movements, implementation and strengthening of placement and turn out will be introduced.
Pee Wee Hip Hop (Ages 5 - 6; 45 minutes)
Junior Hip Hop (Ages 7 - 9; 45 minutes)
In this class, students will learn the latest dance moves and hear the latest hits. They also will be able to use basic steps to create explosive hip-hop moves with plenty of attitude. No prior experience required, but for younger students some prior dance training is recommended. We pride ourselves in age-appropriate movement, music and costuming.
Acro 2 (7-8; 45 minutes) A combination of acrobatics and dance. Think Cirque de Soleil! Learn how to properly execute acrobatic tricks and develop gymnastic skills. Acro emphasizes strength, flexibility, agility and physical control. This class is great for acrobats, gymnasts and dancers alike. Focus is on improving tumbling skills, dance skills and combing both in routines and performance.
