DANCE DIVISION
Hip Hop
Hip Hop delivers a funk that was only seen in the disco days. It has become a popular trend among kids, teenagers, and adults for its variety of movement and funky beats. The Hip Hop culture evolved from the streets of the Bronx, incorporating styles such as Breaking dancing (BBoy), Krumping, Popping, Locking, Ticking, and many more. Join the Hip Hop culture with instructors that have battled the greatest and performed with the best.
Jazz
Similiar to Ballet technique, Jazz Dance relies on balance, posture, and flexibility in order to better execute movement. A variety of music can be used for Jazz choreography that consists of Pirouettes, leaps, and strong arm movements. With a well-planned out lesson plan for each level of dance, students will certainly be on the right path in becoming advanced dancers.
