Ballet & Tap
Ballet comes highly recommend for children of all ages, it provides beautiful poise and deportment, fabulous health benefits, and graded exams to aim for.
Ballet is unique for its prominent level of discipline not found in many other forms of dance. Ballet is often commented on as the basis for all other forms of dance, and it can be said is an essential platform for those wanting to excel in a career in dance, either in a teaching role, a choreographer, or professional dancer. Ballet encompasses the “dancer dream” and continues to resonate in the hearts and minds of children like no other style of dance.
Tap Dance− the dance form that uses the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor, is one of the most unique and captivating styles of the dance arts. Most dance is set to music, but in tap, performers also create percussion sounds with their dancing. Tap is also an essential to Musical Theatre training programmes and of course everyone loves to TAP.
Commercial Dance
Commercial (Modern Musical Theatre, Jazz, Street) is best described as mostly the dancing performed in current pop artist live shows, music videos and even films and is a combination of self- expression, energy, and performance. Commercial dance is dynamic and fun to learn, very upbeat and entertaining. These are popular and exciting styles to learn, particularly for children and teens.
