Lyrical
Lyrical dance is a combination of ballet and jazz dance styles that emphasizes the storytelling quality of music. It is an expressive style of dance that allows the dancer to interpret and express the emotions, lyrics and story associated with a piece of music.
We'll begin with a proper warm-up, stretches, isolations and across-the-floor progressions. Please wear lightweight and flexible fabrics such as cotton or lycra for your top and bottom. Avoid wearing baggy clothing that could restrict your movement. Additionally, make sure to wear appropriate footwear; jazz shoes, ballet shoes, socks, or bare feet are ideal.
Saturday, September 14th
2:30 to 4:00
Jazz
This class is designed to cover all aspects of Jazz dance. We will start with an intense warm-up, leading to strength training of the core and arms. We will then move to progressions across the floor and end with a short combination/choreography. This is a great for Jazz dancers of all levels as we will focus on proper body placement for leaps and turns, as well as other Jazz dance skills. This class is open to beginner, intermediate and advanced students.
Wednesday, September 11th

Stretch & Flow
Stretch and flow is a unique class that blends the benefits of stretching, conditioning, contemporary dance, and yoga. You will learn how to move your body with grace and fluidity, while improving your flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination. You will also experience the relaxation and mindfulness of yoga, as you pause in stretches and breathe deeply. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced dancer, stretch and flow will challenge you to explore your range of motion and express yourself through movement.
This class is on a break from open classes and has moved to small groups.
