Class Descriptions
We offer several genres of dance, including ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, lyrical, musical theatre and pointe. While our current minimum age to start class with us is 2 or 2 and a half, we hope to one day offer classes as young as 6 months with a caregiver. On the other end of the spectrum, we have students well into adulthood and have a fantastic parent dance in our annual recital. In addition to educational classes, we also have a dance company for dancers who are ready for more commitment and performance experience. We also offer competition opportunities within our company for those who desire that.
🩰 Ballet
A graceful and structured dance style that builds strong technique, posture, and poise. Ballet is the foundation of all dance and focuses on coordination, strength, and musicality in a fun, supportive environment. Pointe shoes can be worn at our studio once a student has been in ballet for several years, the child is at least 10-11 years old and has passed a certification exam with our owner Ms Shannon.
👞 Tap
Tap teaches rhythm, timing, and sound-making through the feet! Dancers use special tap shoes to create percussive patterns and learn to “dance like a drum” with upbeat, energetic combinations.
💃 Jazz
A high-energy style that blends technique with personality! Jazz includes kicks, turns, leaps, and expressive movement set to upbeat music—great for building confidence and stage presence.
🌙 Lyrical
Lyrical combines the technique of ballet with the emotion of storytelling. Dancers learn to express feelings through flowing, expressive movement set to softer music with meaningful lyrics
🕶️ Hip Hop
A fun, fast-paced class where dancers learn age-appropriate hip hop moves, isolations, and combos to current music. It’s all about confidence, rhythm, and bringing your own style to the floor!

Tumbling Classes
OUR TUMBLING CLASSES FILL UP FAST! WE KEEP OUR CLASS SIZES SMALL TO MAXIMIZE INDIVIDUAL SPOTTING TIME. WE HAVE THREE INSTRUCTORS WITH PLENTY OF EXPERIENCE AND LOTS OF LOVE AND ATTENTION TO GIVE YOUR TUMBLER! WE USE THE ACROBATIC ARTS SYLLABUS TO SUPPLEMENT OUR TRAINING AND KEEP A SKILLS RUBRIC ON EACH TUMBLER TO PROGRESS THROUGH OUR PROGRAM.
