ADULT DANCE is for adults who miss dancing in the classroom or who want to give dance a try. The first 30 minutes of class will be at the barre. The second 30 minutes will be away from the barre, and will incorporate a variety of dance styles. This class is a great workout.

DRESS CODE: The Young Dancer Division which consists of Petit Dancers, the Pre Ballet classes, and Beginning Ballet, should wear their hair in a pony tail at least, but a bun is preferred. All students in the Primary Dancer Division which consists of Levels 1 - 5 Ballet, along with Recreational and Teen Ballet, should have their hair in a secure bun that will stay for an entire class without coming down after turning and jumping. Jazz students should keep their hair in a bun if coming from or going to ballet class as well as Tap students. Tap students who do not have a ballet class on the same day may wear their hair in a pony tail. Hip Hop, and Drill Prep students should also wear a pony tail as long as they do not have a ballet class after these classes. Acro dance students should wear hair in a low bun or pony tail. **No one should come into the classroom without their hair being up. All hair must be pulled out of the face with no pieces hanging down; no pig tails or braids.
BALLET is an artistic dance form performed to music, and considered the foundation for all other dance styles. Our school is very proud of the emphasis we place on ballet training incorporating elements from Vaganova, Balanchine, & Royal Ballet methods to emphasize technique & musicality. Our "ballet only" classes begin at Level 1 Ballet and go through Level 5 Ballet.
JAZZ is a 45 minute to one hour dance class for students 6 & a half yrs and older. Jazz is a style of dance that is structured in technique while taking many shapes and forms, and can be performed to many styles of music. **All jazz students must take at least one ballet class weekly except for Teen Jazz.
RECITAL/COSTUME POLICY: The recital date for 2022 is Friday evening, May 27th, at The Belcher Center. If anything changes, we will make you aware of it as soon as we know.
It is normal for any parent to view their child as the best in the class, but remember, the teacher is looking at your child through trained eyes. If the teacher's judgement is not respected in all areas of your child's training, his or her dance education may be compromised.
