Classes Offerings
Game Day!
This class focuses on the type of dance you see on the sidelines and at halftimes of your favorite sporting events. Cheerleading voice and sharp arm movements, with or without poms, are learned and strengthened. Jumps, leaps, turns, and kicks are traditional dance skills introduced and improved in this class. An emphasis on performance quality and showmanship is key to this style. Different Game Day aspects will be highlighted each class and combinations will be learned to incorporate the skills gained. If your child loves excitement and precision and maybe wants to cheer or dance for their high school or college team someday, this class is perfect!
Hip Hop
Hip Hop can be a fun, creative outlet for children. If the idea of traditional dance types is not your child’s jam, hip hop just might be a great option! The focus will be on rhythm and expression using body isolations and even stylized tricks. In hip hop class the dancer has the opportunity to make the moves “their own” by interpreting the movement and the music in their own unique way. Core strength, body awareness, performance, and musicality are focuses of this style. Hip Hop is a great way to start dance if your child is hesitant about trying dance and is also for those children who know they love dance and want to break free of some of the rules.
Tumbling
This class focuses on proper strength, stretching, and alignment of the muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints to be able to perform gymnastic style skills. Most of the class is spent on the conditioning required to perform skills safely. Stations are often utilized to be sure each student gets all the conditioning necessary. Once students are properly strong and stretched, tumbling skills can be attempted at their appropriate level. Each student progresses at an individual pace using a checklist of skills. Different tools such as specialty mats and trampolines may be used to help students progress safely. This class is a great introductory to the world of dance and the techniques learned can be utilized in Game Day, Hip Hop, and Lyrical classes to supplement those dance styles.
Tap
Tap is a style where dancers use tap shoes to create sounds with their feet while moving to the music. The feet become an instrument as the dancer expresses the musical beat. Tap can be seen in theater shows and done in a character fashion (like on Broadway). It can also be done in a “street” fashion that resembles hip hop and blends sounds like a drummer riffing on their instrument. Tap allows your child to explore sound creation through movement and performance. This is a great class for those children that like to make a little tapping noise!
Ballet
Lyrical
This style focuses on the interpretation of the song being danced to as the dancer emotes and expresses themself through movement. While the technical skills can range, they are often closely associated with the technique of ballet. Proper control and skill help the dancer to fully realize their expression. This style is for older students as it requires physical skills as well as a maturity for story-telling. If your child enjoys emotional portrayals of music, this is their class!
Sprouts
For ages 2-3 years in their first or second year of dance. This class is designed for the littlest learners to start to feel comfortable and confident in a new setting, with new friends, and a new teacher. Tiny Twinkles gives our youngest students the chance to be imaginative and playful and utilize fun props for a joyful introduction to movement and music. Dancers will be engaged in activities to promote spatial awareness, following directions and making rhythms. Learning pre-ballet skills, coordination, and balance are great side effects to all the fun your child will be having in this class.
