Classes

Ballet provides a solid foundation for all types of dance. Students will be taught development of basic ballet exercise for feet, legs, hands and arm extensions. Ballet teaches coordination, musicality, and the proper method of turn out, while developing and strengthening muscles, improving posture and grace and building a strong visual memory. Slow and fast exercises are performed at the barre, in the center of the floor, and progressions across the floor.

Jazz students will learn isolation movement, combinations,kicks, jazz terminology and development of flexibility, balance, co-ordination and control. Leading into various jumps, leaps, turns, and more complex combinations increasing co-ordination and flexibility.

Terminology, rhythm and timing development are the basic lesson for all levels. Technique, musicality and coordination are the focus in tap class. Students are introduced to tap steps ranging from simple to complex and apply the learned material during a warm up, center floor and combinations. Lots of footwork and combinations are used throughout the classes. Students will tap to the background of Christian music.

Horton Modern dance technique contains a more in depth analysis of movements. It's a training method expands the body's traditional range of motion and explores the many ways the body can move. This method has enormous variety, range, and complexity and continues to train strong, versatile dancers. Biblical teachings will be incorporated as well as technique.

**Ballet, Tap & Jazz classes require a minimum of six students.
**Modern class requires a minimum of 15 students.
