Modern/Contemporary dance is a dance style that centers on a dancer's own interpretations instead of structured steps, as in traditional Ballet dancing. Taking Ballet in addition to Modern/Contemporary is highly encouraged. Students who do not take Ballet class may be used separately in dances, as their skill level will not be as high as students with Ballet training.
Musical Theatre is a form of theatre combining music, songs, spoken dialogue and dance. The emotional content of the piece – humor, pathos, love, anger – and story itself, are communicated through the words, music, movement and technical aspects of the entertainment as an integrated whole.
Tap is a rhythmic style of dance, characterized by tap shoes striking the floor. The shoes have metal "taps" on the heel and toe and are used to make percussive sounds on hard floors. Tap is a very popular style of dance and great for coordination and developing rhythm.
