What We Do

Training in ballet starts with one lesson a week, until children reach grade Four, when they move up to two classes per week. This disciplined dance form is the basis of all dance forms and helps dancers gain the strength and poise required with all styles of dance.

Jazz comes in many forms and we try to explore as many of these as we can within each class. We work on a strong base of technique and flexibility as well as musicality and co-ordination. The styles incorporated into this class are Traditional, Cabaret, Broadway, Latin, Commercial and Contemporary jazz (Gaga style).

This popular style is a combination of street, commercial, breakdancing, krumping, popping and locking. In this class, we expose the students to a little of all these flavours of hip hop and also open a window for them to get creative and explore their own style. This class is also very popular with boys and classes are run co-education.

Acrobats is a dance form incorporating tricks. In this class we work on flexibility, strength, balance and tumbling as well as basic dance technique. Classes are split on ability not age so all students are working at a level they can manage.

Contemporary and Lyrical are quickly growing in popularity due to their expressive feel and mixing of other styles with it. This style incorporates moving in and out of the floor in different ways, as well as what I like to call “ugly pretty” lines and movements. This style can be soft and floaty telling an obvious story, but can also be sharp, strong and energetic.

A mature class just for that, dancing in heels! It incorporates different styles such as jazz, commercial, broadway and burlesque. This class aims to improv balance, posture, coordination and confidence while learning fun dance moves.

Tap is all about timing, rhythm and musicality. We explore the basic and traditional technique used in tapping as well as incorporating the now popular, hip hop tap.
