Styles on Offer

 

Jazz

An high-energy, upbeat & vibrant dance style with music to match! Classes are structured to incorporate limbering, strength work, choreography, musicality & skill building. All students at DANCE1 MUST take a Jazz class.

 

Modern

An expressive form of dance that blends the elements, fundamentals & technique of Classical Ballet. Modern dance develops fluidity, grace, poise and expression.

 

Tap

A lively & rhythmic class where dancers move more than just their bodies, but transform their feet into musical instruments. Students learn the foundational steps, explore footwork patterns and develop precision & timing.

 

Hip Hop

Learn dynamic, commercial choreography and bust a move like they do in your favourite music video. Age appropriate music & choreography ALWAYS used.

 

ACRO for Dance

A style of dance that combines acrobatic skills to enhance balance, flexibility and strength. Acro for Dance is an especially challenging dance genre requiring strong technical training in both the dance & Acro fields. While it shares some ‘tricks’ with gymnastics, its technique is much more ‘dance’ specific. Therefore ACRO requires an enrolment into a JAZZ class. 

 

Ballet 

Available in our ‘MiniBlast’ class (Jazz/Ballet), this style looks at the foundation,

precision and formal repertoire of classical Ballet. The perfect stepping stone to our Technique classes which are eligible for dancers in Year 4 & above. Think barre work, adage and petite allegro.
