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.

As dancers, our bodies are the instrument used to showcase our skills and artistry. This is why it's so important to keep our bodies strong, balanced, and ready for anything thrown at us in the

Archives Class
Archives class is dedicated to continuing the exploration of combos from previous open classes. Many times we do not get to finish our combos completely due to time restrictions. So, we will dedicate time in this class to revisit all
the combos left undone, or move to our favorite finished combos again.
We will vote every month on the combo (via social media). The styles will vary but will include contemporary, jazz, street jazz, and floor work.
Open to ages 14 and up.
