Ballet Technique is suggested for dancers who wish to develop their technique at a quicker pace. This is a non performance class and is required for any student who is enrolled in  Ballet Performance, Contemporary,  or Lyrical.

Jazz uses rhythm and syncopated movement with an emphasis on flexibility, technique, and the development of coordination. This class may fulfill the co-requisite requirement for dancers enrolled in Acting. 

Tap is a dance form characterized by using the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor as a form of percussion. Tap emphasizes rhythm, tempo, and musicality.  

Musical theatre is rooted in the diverse history of Broadway musicals. Instruction touches on acting, vocal, and dance, and a knowledge of ballet, tap, and jazz will benefit students in this class.
