Acro
-
As the world of dance evolves, we see a trend to include acrodance in dance education. Acrodance samples from the classical world of ballet, jazz, contemporary, and lyrical, while also incorporating acrobatics.
The focus is to increase strength, balance and flexibility for the dancer, as well as to develop a repertoire of acrobatics that can be added to other genres. Examples of tricks that dancers may learn are cartwheels, handstands, round offs, and more!
Athleticism and a unique choreography style are what make acrodance stand apart from other traditional dance styles. If you’ve had the pleasure of seeing Cirque du Soleil, you’ve seen some of the world’s best acrodancers.

Ballet
-
Ballet teaches proper alignment, posture, and fluidity of movement, and is considered one of the most foundational forms of dance. Ballet focuses on the beauty in synchronicity and precision. Each ballet class incorporates barre, centre work, and across-the-floor exercises.
Dancers will learn an entire language of ballet vocabulary and positions that will serve them in all other forms of dance. Dancers will focus on differentiating between the smallest changes in positioning, and increasing their body awareness. This focus on technique, flexibility, and conditioning sets dancers up for success in all movement styles.

Breaking
-
Breakdancing, or breaking, is a form of dance that focuses on creative self-expression, individuality, and the celebration of music. It encourages the manifestation of one’s own personal style and helps develop strong interpersonal skills. The technical use of strength, stamina, and flexibility also make it a great practice of physical education.
Breaking comes from the African American and Puerto Rican communities in the 70’s, and 50 years later it’s popularity continues to grow! Breaking consists of toprock, downrock, power moves, and freezes. It’s usually accompanied by hip hop, disco, funk, and soul music with drum breaks. It’s high energy, fierce athleticism, and a lot of fun!

Contemporary
-
Contemporary has become one of the most dominant forms of dance for professional dancers. It is constantly evolving; students will experiment with partnering, floor work, and creative tools, using all the techniques of dance in one class. This ever changing style of dance blends traditional technique from ballet and jazz, with a focus on expressing emotionality through movement and breath. Improvisation, versatility, and floor work are important elements of contemporary dance.
It is highly recommended, but not mandatory, to do one year of jazz or ballet before enrolling in contemporary class. This foundational technique will allow dancers to pick up choreography and progress faster.

Hip Hop

Hip Hop is a style of street dance that rose to prominence through dance crews in the 1970s and have since exploded in popularity, thanks to their strong presence in TV shows, music videos, and films. This fun, high-energy dance style allows the dancer to break away from the structure and traditional technique of classical dance.
There is a strong focus on connecting to the music and lyrics while performing with confidence, personality, and flair. With an emphasis on attitude, individuality, and musicality, street styles create an engaging and energetic experience for every dancer.In these classes, dancers will learn grooves, dynamics, and choreography designed to build a party-like atmosphere while supporting and hyping each other up.
