ABOUT

Offered to students in grades 3 to 6, the program aims to provide a life balance between dance, family life, social life and school studies. Students in the program train 10 hours per week with a stable class schedule from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday to Friday. They will have the opportunity to train with technical classes in jazz, ballet, acro-dance, stretching and weight training and tap dancing. This program allows the student to practice in the afternoons and have time at home in the evenings on weekdays, while being part of the competitive squad.

Ballet gives the opportunity to the students to work on technique, gracefulness, flexibility and self esteem. Our ballet classes give students the chance to work with the syllabus of the british association of teachers of dancer (B.A.T.D.).

Jazz is an energetic style of dance that allows students to work on different skills such as jumps, turns and flexibility. Our jazz classes give the opportunity to dancers to work with the syllabus of the associated dance arts for professional teachers (A.D.A.P.T.).

Hip hop classes give the opportunity to dancers to learn different movements as well as many different energetic choreographies.

Tap dancing gives the opportunity to our dancers to discover rhythm with the help of different music styles. Our tap classes give the opportunity to the student to work with the syllabus of the associated dance arts for professional teachers (A.D.A.P.T.).

Broadway is a style of dance that combines jazz and theatre that allows dancers to get outside the box with their performance. The music that is often used for this type of class is musical theater.

Acro dance combines tumbling, stands, contortion and other acrobatic skills to give the opportunity to students to work on strength and flexibility.

Lyrical is a fusion of ballet and jazz dance styles and places emphasis on the expression of emotions based on the music and the choreography.

Contemporary classes are based on the experimentation of the dancers own bodies in movement with music and different spaces to create different unique choreographies.
