Ballet

''Ballet is a dance executed by the human soul.'' Alexander Pushkin

Ballet forms the basis for all other types of dance as it helps develop strength, posture, grace, co-ordination, technique and musical awareness. Classes are available to students from age 3yrs


Tap 

"If you play a tune and a person don't tap their feet, don't play the tune."  Count Basie

Tap is a rhythmical stimulating style of dance. Dancers practise a series of basic steps. As the dancer becomes proficient more difficult combinations are mastered. Classes are available to students from age 3yrs

 

Modern 

''What is modern about modern dance is its resistance to the past, its response to the present, its constant redefining of the idea of dance.'' Marcia B. Siegel                        

Modern dance incorporates both a strong jazz and slow lyrical style. Classes are available to students from age 3yrs


Jazz

''Learning to dance gives you the greatest freedom of all: to express with your whole self the person you are.'' Melissa Hayden

Jazz dance combines technique with a dancer's individual style and originality. It is energetic and consists of fancy footwork, big leaps and quick turns. Classes are available to students from age 6yrs (approx)


Street

'' When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor, it is to enjoy each step along the way''. Wayne Dyer

Street dance is free, expressive and does not restrict. It covers a wide spectrum of styles and moves. Classes are available to students from age 6yrs (approx)
