Classes We Offer
JAZZ & TAP
Combo Class
Jazz is a high energy, fun class which consists of technique training (turns, kicks, leaps, isolations etc), and covers a wide range of styles, including lyrical, musical theatre, and street (hip hop). For more info see our 'What is Jazz Dance?' video on the Gallery page.
Tap is a rhythm based dance genre where the dancer acts as a percussionist as well as a dancer. Beats are made using the metal plates at the toe and heel of the tap shoe.
