Service Description

This 12 week series combines foundational elements of the big three (ballet, tap and jazz), this class is perfect for those seeking well-rounded technical training to become the skilled and versatile dancer that stands out at auditions and shines on stage! We will cover everything from proper alignment and positions in ballet, to rhythm exercises in tap, to progressions across the floor in jazz. All three styles will focus heavily on vocabulary and feature musical theatre choreography. Some quick examples for each style: Ballet: - basic vocabulary (plie, port de bras, pas de bourree) - proper alignment (hips tucked under, chin over shoulder, head follows hand) - proper way to point and flex feet (how to articulate through each area of the foot) Tap: - basic vocabulary (shuffle, flap, Irish) - repetitive exercises that help with timing/counting music - fun combinations across the floor and center floor Jazz: - basic vocabulary (jazz square, pivot turn, kick ball change) - isolation exercises (very popular in Fosse style!) - fun combinations across the floor and center floor What to wear: Dance/athletic clothing that is comfortable to move in (no crop tops, please!). Footwear options: ballet, tap and jazz shoes/character heels. Note: None of this footwear is required, just recommended...all of these lessons can be learned in socks (even tap!). This summer session begins on Wednesday, June 10 and will end on Wednesday, August 26. We are offering a discounted registration fee of $20 for our summer session, which must be paid upon booking in order to reserve a spot. Tuition is $60 per month, due on the 1st of each month.
