Studio Classes

Preschool Ballet/Tap

This 45-minute class is a great introduction to dance for your preschooler. Our goal is to develop a love for dance and to have fun while learning basic steps. We explore fundamental dance elements such as place, time, force, and form. Kids love dancing to their favorite songs and with different props each week. Dancers are invited to perform both tap and ballet in our end of year recital that is sure to be the highlight of their year!

K-1st Ballet/Tap

In this 45-minute class, we’ll start to learn faster footwork and more complex routines while maintaining a playful environment Dancers will dance with props, play games, and participate in creative movement exercises. We’ll practice memorizing routines on our own and developing our attention to technical details. Dancers will learn a ballet and tap routine with their class to perform in our spring recital.

Ballet/Tap/Jazz

These 75-minute classes are for older dancers and require teacher approval to join. For the first half of the year, we focus on developing our technique and learning new steps and tricks. In the second half of the year, we’ll begin working on recital choreography. We shift our focus to applying our technique in a group dance setting, learning precision, formations, and how to shine as an individual while maintaining the cohesion of the group. Rather than naming these classes by their level, classes are assigned a fun name such as “Dancing Dolphins” or “Shining Starfish”. This helps maintain a non-competitive environment that focuses on each dancer doing his or her best rather than defining themselves based on their level.

*NEW* Mommy and Me Ballet

This 45-minute pre-ballet class is designed for children ages 18 to 36 months and their caregivers (mom, dad, or other). Caregivers and little ones will bond while exploring the fundamentals of ballet through playful activities such as gentle stretching, simple ballet steps, and fun, interactive games. The class encourages children to develop coordination, motor skills, and socialization in a nurturing environment, all while enjoying the shared experience of dancing with their loved adult! Perfect for building confidence, improving balance, and fostering a love for movement from an early age.
