Tap

Tap is a fun energetic type of dance that was made famous by the Tap dogs, movies like Bootmen and musicals such as Hot Shoe Shuffle. This style is technical but one of the most fun styles of dance around. It is also fantastic for students who find picking up steps difficult and improves motor skills.

 

Jazz is a exciting class with a funky feel, dancing to the latest music. Classes include a floor warm up, stretch and limber session followed by corner steps including kicks, leaps and turns, finishing with a routine. Technique is encouraged in this class and all steps are broken down and explained in detail .

 

Hip Hop is a freer urban style of dance. This is not a technical class and students are encouraged to find their own groove and own style. Some break dancing is taught. 

 

Contemporary is a form of ballet without all the rules! Most dances tell a story and students are encouraged to feel the music and invoke emotions.

 

The Royal Academy of Dance syllabus is accredited worldwide. Children need a strong technical foundation to support them through all styles of dance. Ballet provides that foundation. It improves posture, co‐ordination, flexibility, grace and strength.
