TAP

PRE-BALLET/JAZZ/TAP COMBO with Jessica 5-7 yrs old

An introduction to these basics using methods designed for young imaginative minds and bodies. Students are given the opportunity to move, stretch, and improve self-confidence while being introduced to basic ballet and tap concepts, body alignment, posture, balance, motor skills, as well as develop self-expression through creative movement. These classes emphasize proper placement, vocabulary, etiquette, as well as jazz, tap and ballet-based improvisation.  

TAP I with Leah 8 years old & up

Through a series of center exercises and progressions across the floor students will learn fundamental tap technique and terminology, rhythm and musicality, as well as develop correct body placement.

TAP II with Leah

Tap II is a fun, high energy class building on the skills learned in Tap I. This class is designed for students excited to expand their tap vocabulary and strengthen their rhythmic understanding.

TAP III with Leah

Students in Tap III are introduced to more complex rhythms, dynamics and musicality, learning how to break down and combine rhythms while strengthening their footwork. Focus is on clarity of sounds, understanding rhythms, increasing speed and developing style- all with a continued emphasis on proper technique and terminology.
