Dance Center. We offer beginning to advanced level youth and adult
classes. These classes are an excellent form of exercise as well as
a way to increase flexibility, develop long lean muscle tone and
give anyone the grace of a dancer.
Hip Hop, Jazz & Tap - These styles of dance are fun, funky and jazzy. The students will learn
dance moves as seen in music videos and stage shows. Lively, age
appropriate music keeps the class energized. This dance is “current”
with all the latest trends in the Hip- Hop, Jazz and Tap world.
Contemporary - Contemporary is another word for "modern" or "current". If something is contemporary, it belongs in the here and now, the current time period. Contemporary dance is therefore always changing with the times and developing, and takes its inspiration from many different modern forms of dance. It can be danced to almost any style of music, and it can be mixed up with other dance forms such as street-dance, ballet, jazz, African and Asian dance, and other forms of exercise such as martial arts and yoga, to create new dance moves. Practicing contemporary dance involves learning a range of techniques and styles which are used in dance classes, dance workshops and dance choreography, and exploring your own creativity through movement. |
