Contemporary (Int 3rd-5th, Int/Adv 6th+, Adv 9th+)
Contemporary is an essential style for professional dancers that explores and stretches the many ways a human can move. Students will explore movement qualities and grounded floorwork that will strengthen their performance maturity and build their creative skills in creating their own works.
Ballet (Int 3rd-5th, Int/Adv 6th+, Adv 9th+)
Ballet is the foundation of performance dance. Students will strengthen and clean their technique and refine their artistry while strengthening their memory through challenging combinations.
Pointe 1
This class is for dancers who are already En Pointe, to clean the basics of pointe technique. In the future, pointe levels will be added as well as pointe prep courses when Intermediate students are ready.

This is a technique based class that will cover ballet and contemporary concepts that are for boys' bodies. Students will work on core strength, alignment, flexibility and coordination for future skills.
