JAZZ 
Jazz has been a popular high energy form of dance for many years and is the most popular of all our classes. Classes begin with a high energy "stamina" warm up followed by stretching, corner technique (kicks, turns, etc) centre combinations and choreography. Jazz classes will enable students to learn the widest range of skills and correct technique while using current music and movements. Our jazz classes take many forms, from the latest funk to more traditional styles.
Ages: 5 yrs - adult
CLASSICAL BALLET (RAD)
A traditional and classical form of dance that provides a strong and solid technical base. With its grace, strength and discipline, a dancer will see a significant improvement in all their dance styles. After sufficient study of ballet, a student may be advanced to Pointe work. Exams are optional. All Performance Troupe members MUST take one classical class per week.
Ages: 5 yrs - adult
TAP (GWT)
Tap is a form of dance wherein rhythmic sounds are created by the feet, in a series of regulated and controlled movements. Classes incorporate the classic steps of tap dancing while adding a fresh approach to choreography. Following the GWT Syllabus (Glenn Wood Tap) dancers learn to coordinate rhythm, agility, and musicality to execute clear tap sounds and movement. Exams are optional.
Ages: 5 yrs - adult
CONTEMPORARY
A technical and free form of dance done in bare feet, this is a very athletic form of dance, concerned with transitions of weight, fall and recovery as well as alignment. Using a combination of Classical Ballet and Modern technique, this class provides a freer form of movement that is expressive of feelings.
