Class Descriptions and Specifications
Students will be placed within the age level indicated by the class schedule until it is determined by faculty that they
need to be moved to a higher level.  This means that the student will remain in the same level for possibly 2-3 years.  

It is very important in dance to allow the technique to develop at an appropriate rate.  The student needs to feel
confident in their mastery of the desired placement and skills to truly progress.  No student will be placed in a level to
accommodate car-pooling or siblings in other classes.
Combination Classes for Young Children
All of these classes place an emphasis on social discipline, motor skills, musicality, and building the self-esteems of
happy, healthy children.  Creative expression and exploring the imagination are key to creating a love of dance
that will last a lifetime.

Classical ballet is a style of dance strongly rooted in tradition and discipline.  It places an emphasis on lines of the
body, precise footwork, and artistically expressive positions of the arms.

Jazz
Jazz is a style of dance that finds its roots in ballet, but was enhanced by musical trends, social dances, and the
popularization of dance through movies and musicals.  It can be percussive with intricate rhythm patterns or fluid
with emotional intensity.  These classes place an emphasis on isolating body parts, increased flexibility, and
exhibition of individual personality. Broadway and Contemporary are the styles of jazz covered in each class.
